Metriod film rumors still alive; movie poster surfaces
Rumors have been swirling about a Metroid movie for awhile, but a photo of what appears to be a blurry movie poster recently added some fire to the flame. Supposedly, John Woo is behind the reigns, and is dropping the announcement power bomb at this years Comic Con. We haven’t seen much recent work from Woo, which means he very well could have been hard at work translating the Nintendo classic to the big screen. This makes sense, as he optioned the rights to a Metroid movie back in 2004. I usually don’t like video game movies (or movie video games for that matter), but would happily pay to see a Metroid movie, as long as they have the awesome intro to Super Metroid in there somewhere.

Wow, that looks sketchy…
I can help but hoping, though…
yeah definitely not the most reliable looking evidence… but interesting none the less
Personally, I’m saying this is fake. If this movie is supposed to be out by May of next year, then we would have known about it by now and filming would already be taking place- especially considering all post production work that needs to be done for a film of this type.
But that’s not to say a Metroid movie is in the works though- just not for May of next year…
