Blumhouse and Behaviour Interactive Join Forces for ‘Dead by Daylight’ Film Adaptation
In recent years, the popularity of video game adaptations has skyrocketed in the film industry. From the record-breaking success of the “Resident Evil” franchise to the critically acclaimed “The Witcher,” video game adaptations have proven to be a lucrative and creative source for Hollywood.
Blumhouse, one of the leading studios in the horror genre, has teamed up with Behaviour Interactive and Atomic Monster to produce a movie adaptation of the popular game Dead by Daylight. When the game was first released in 2016, it quickly gained popularity due to its unique concept and collaborations with other horror franchises such as Resident Evil, Saw, and Ringu.
In the game, players take on the role of either a survivor trying to escape from a killer or the killer themselves. The movie adaptation will be based on this same premise, promising to deliver the same thrilling experience fans have come to expect from the game.
The news of the film adaptation was first reported by Variety, with Behaviour Interactive set to produce the film in partnership with Blumhouse and Atomic Monster.
Behaviour Interactive Executive Vice President Stephen Mulrooney expressed excitement at the prospect of working with two giants in the horror film industry, Jason Blum and James Wan. Wan’s production company, Atomic Monster, had previously worked with Blumhouse on M3GAN, making this collaboration a natural fit.
Blumhouse’s relationship with the gaming world is also set to expand with the recent announcement of Blumhouse Games, a new division that will produce original horror video games. With this move, Blumhouse is positioning itself as a major player in both the film and gaming industries, providing to a growing audience that craves unique and thrilling experiences.
Dead by Daylight fans can look forward to the movie’s release, though details about the film’s plot and cast are still very less. As one of the most popular horror games of recent years, the movie adaptation will surely attract a massive audience and may even introduce the game to new fans who have yet to experience the excitement of Dead by Daylight.
With Blumhouse and Behaviour Interactive in charge, fans can expect a thrilling and terrifying movie that stays true to the game’s unique concept and world-building. Even though we don’t know much about the film yet, we can be sure that the release of Dead by Daylight will be a huge deal for fans of the horror genre.
While this is all we know about the game at this point, rest assured that we will keep you updated on all developments as new information becomes available.
