Dmitry Glukhovsky author of Metro
2033 has partnered with Michael De Luca to spearhead a feature film based on the cult media
franchise. Word has it that not Stephen
L’Heureux is also attached to the embryonic project.
Based on Glukhovsky’s harrowing
post-apocalyptic novel series the author released an official statement in
light of the announcement, revealing how he has been extremely careful before allowing his passion project to be handed
over to Hollywood producers. He stated “my
novel and I have been waiting for this to happen for the last 10 years. I
have previously been extremely careful about handing my ‘baby’ over to
Hollywood producers for adaption for a feature film, but now I feel that it has
landed in the right hands. De Luca and L’Heureux have a great vision for this
project, and I feel it’s an honor to work with them”.
At the heart of the story is Artyom, a young soldier struggling to
survive in the nuclear fallout from World War III. Housed up in the Russian
underground, the Metro universe incorporates supernatural elements
into the mix in the form of the Dark Ones, and there’s plenty of stories to
tell from within the new civilization that rises from the Moscow tunnels.
