Sam Heughan is circling the lead role in the upcoming movie Days Gone, an adaptation of the popular PlayStation game that has sold nine million units.
Deadline reports that Sony PlayStation Productions is developing the new film after the success of the movie Uncharted, which grossed over $400 million at the box office.
The story “is set in the Pacific Northwest after a devastating global pandemic. The game chronicles former motorcycle club member, Deacon St. John (Heughan), as he fights to survive against the forces of despair and mutated, predatory humans in his quest to find the long lost, presumed dead, love of his life.”
Oscar-nominated writer Sheldon Turner is writing the script and he’s producing with Jennifer Klein through their production company Vendetta Productions. This is the second project that Sam has in the works with them!
