Call of Duty movie unlikely

4.7
Activision CEO Bobby Kotick has said that despite the campaign for Call of Duty being very cinematic, he has no interest in making the franchise into a movie.

Kotick has already turned down multiple requests from various studios that have offered to turn gamings biggest franchise into a movie. Kotick says movies based on video games rarely please devoted fans and could taint the brand.

Call of Duty makes up an estimated one-third of Activision’s more than $4 billion in annual revenue, so they certainly wouldn't want to do anything that could cause it harm.

Game-to-Movie adaptations have never worked very well, but if anyone knows of one that was actually good then please let us know.

DLT As good as I think the new Call of Duty is, I think they should let the franchise die with some dignity. It's good they aren't making a movie and they shouldn't make another game. Otherwise they are going to kill the franchise just like they did with Guitar Hero.


I agree, Guitar Hero was so good, then they over did it with all the stupid ones that came out.
