Details about the upcoming film are decidedly thin in a report by The Hollywood Reporter. We know it comes from Chuck Williams of Lightbeam Entertainment, a video game producer for Disney games. Baldoni will produce the film alongside Manu Gargi and Andrew Galof of Wayfarer Studios and Williams and Tim Kwok of Lightbeam. No information about the film’s story or cast has been announced.
The last time we saw Pac-Man featured prominently in a movie was in the 2015 film Pixels. This is his rather radical and ridiculous sci-fi comedy film about aliens invading Earth using technology based on his 1980s retro games such as Arkanoid, Donkey. Kong, Space Invaders. Despite being panned by critics and receiving a middling 5.6 rating from users on IMDB, Pixels made around $250 million at the box office. Hopefully, this will give you a welcome respite for the success of this next project.
This new Pac-Man movie adds to the list of upcoming movies based on video games. This includes a Jack and Daxter movie starring Uncharted filmmaker Ruben Fleischer, a Ghost of Tsushima movie directed by John Wick’s Chad Stahelski, and a possible live-action Persona movie. includes gender.
