PlayStation Is Working on a Gravity Rush Movie

Gravity Rush could be the next PlayStation game heading to the screen.

According to Deadline, PlayStation Productions and Scott Free Productions have begun development on a movie based on the Japan Studios action game. Anna Mastro (Secret Society of Second Born Royals) is attached as director with a script from Emily Jerome (Panopticon).

Gravity Rush was released in 2012 for the PlayStation Vita and centered around Kat, a girl with no memories and the ability to manipulate gravity. She uses these abilities to fly around the floating city of Heksville and defeat monsters called the Nevi, all while trying to uncover her past.

The Best PS4 Games (Summer 2020 Update)

IGN’s list of the best games on Playstation 4. With the console’s last big exclusives in the rearview and the PS5 fast approaching on the horizon, we thought it was high time to take a fresh look at its library of games. This list was compiled by the entire IGN content team and – after plenty of internal debate – represents what we believe to be the very best that the PS4 has to offer.

Please note that PSVR-only games weren’t eligible for this list. While we have loved plenty of experiences in PlayStation VR, because there’s a second barrier to entry, and the intention of this list is that you could buy a PS4 and play any of these 25 games immediately, we have chosen to omit them from consideration (if you’ve got PSVR and need recommendations, though, you should definitely check out our list of the best PSVR games).
Lastly, know that not we get that not every game could be included — it is a top 25, after all. And though many of our favorite games have been omitted, know that this list should set you up to have dozens and dozens of hours of fun, no matter what genre you enjoy.” src=”https://assets-prd.ignimgs.com/2020/07/30/topps4-slideshow-1596129206319.jpg?width=888&crop=16%3A9&quality=20&dpr=0.05″ class=”jsx-2920405963 progressive-image image jsx-294430442 rounded expand loading”>

This will be the latest PlayStation game to be developed for the screen since Sony launched its PlayStation Productions label. Other movies and shows in the works include Twisted Metal, Ghost of Tsushima, Gran Turismo, and Horizon.

There is also The Last of Us which got its first preview this weekend ahead of the House of the Dragon premiere where we finally got a good look at Pedro Pascal’s Joel and Bella Ramsey’s Ellie.

PlayStation Productions was started in 2019 with the goal of adapting PlayStation video games for TV and film. With all of Sony’s major first-party games like God of War, Horizon, and The Last of Us already in development, cult-titles like Gravity Rush are also up for grabs.

What lesser-known game would you like to see PlayStation adapt next?
