Well it was bound to happen, Fox
has worked out a deal with Hasbro to adapt the popular card game, and as tapped
Simon Kinberg to develop and produce the property into a movie franchise.
For those of you that aren’t
familiar with the immensely popular card game, Magic: The Gathering is a battle
between wizards known as Planeswalkers who use cards containing spells,
artifacts and creatures in order to defeat your opponent. The game celebrated
its 20th anniversary last year and after all this time the community
seems to be as strong as ever, so it makes some sense that the game would be
turned into a movie(s).
Kinberg also recently signed a
three year deal with Fox and is already developing new X-Men and Fantastic Four
properties.
