Beyond Screen and Cinema
Fresh off the heels ofTom Clancy goes anime, Ubisoft have announced yet another collaboration with their new pals at Netflix. This time, it’s a feature-length adaptation ofBeyond Good And Evilfrom Detective Pikachu director Rob Letterman - and with the long-dormant game sequel still no closer to release, there’s a good chance this film may even hit screens first.

While THR pen it as an adaptation of 2003’s cult photojournalism conspiracy, Netflix’s announcement tweet paints something closer to the perpetually-absentBeyond Good And Evil 2, with space pirates and key art gesturing at Ubi’s own cinematic trailers.
It’s been a hot minute since we caught wind of BG&E2, with the most recent flashy cinematic trailerpremiering over two years ago. Between that and itsprevious tease, it seemed like Ubi were more interested in creating stunning short features than an actual videogame. In that respect, a proper movie makes a lot of sense.
Perhaps we’ll see some more of BG&E2 atanother Ubisoft Forward eventthis year? Frankly, I reckon we’ll see a feature film hit before that game ever sees the light of day.
