Watch Dogs Movie Finds Another Lead With Hunger Games Star – Report
Ubisoft has been working on a Watch Dogs movie for more than a decade, and it now seems to be finally coming together. Deadline reports that Tom Blyth, who starred in the Hunger Games prequel The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes, will play a lead. He joins Sophia Wilde, who was previously linked to the Watch Dogs movie.
Mathieu Turi (The Deep Dark, Hostile, and assistant director on Inglourious Basterds) is directing Watch Dogs from a script by Christie LeBlanc (Oxygen). Victoria Bata (Lessons in Chemistry) also contributed to the script.
The Watch Dogs movie was originally set up at Sony Pictures but has now changed hands to New Regency. Turi is also developing a TV series based on the Plague Tale games.
