Ubisoft registers various movie-oriented Watch Dogs domains

4.7
The Hollywood rumor mill overflowed into our own yesterday when Deadline reported that Ubisoft is in talks with Paramount and Warner Bros. over the possibility of a Splinter Cell movie. Now it seems that may not be the only film franchise the French publisher is considering, as a cache of Watch Dogs movie URLs have been uncovered by the domain sleuths at Fusible.

All registered by Ubisoft, the domain names in question (WatchDogsmovie.com, WatchDogsthemovie.com, Watch-Dogsmovie.com, Watch-Dogsthemovie.com) seem to indicate that the possibility of a Watch Dogs film has crossed Ubisoft's hive mind, or at the very least that it wants to guard against potential domain squatters should a movie ever enter production in the future.

To be totally honest when they showed it at E3 I was like "Why the advertising a movie at E3?!" so I think it has very good potential for a movie

Devise They are moving way to fast! The game hasn't even been released yet!


You have to remember, that domains need to be registered way ahead of time before release or reveal. Also, it could have to do with the in-game experience.

Storyline has a very cinematic feel to it. Wouldn't be surprised if they do make a film out of it.
