Mass Effect Movie
Mass Effect 2 hits streets next week, and it’s a big deal. Hollywood is talking about turning Mass Effect into a movie.
A few hours ago MTV spoke with BioWare’s Casey Hudson, their project director on the most recent Mass Effect game. Casey wasn’t shy about teasing talk of turning his franchise into a movie. He says, “We have a tremendous amount of interest from people in Hollywood to make a major motion picture about Mass Effect.”
“The most important thing for us is, we don't just want to see a movie get made. We want to see a great movie get made, if it's going to get done at all.”
