Game of Thrones Writer To Pen Magic: The Gathering

Hollywood hasn't been oblivious to the success of HBO's hit fantasy drama, Game of Thrones, as according to Deadline, Fox has tapped Game of Thrones writer, producer, and story editor, Bryan Cogman to pen the big-screen adaptation of the popular card game, Magic: The Gathering.

In a previous interview, X-Men: Days of Future Past screenwriter, Simon Kinberg will executive produce the adaptation, said:

The vision is absolutely to create a big fantasy epic like the Lord of the Rings movies, or Game of Thrones on a slightly bigger scale. I didn’t grow up playing Magic, but over the last several years, I’ve learned a whole lot more about it and how deep the universe goes. We’re talking to different filmmakers and writers now, and should be locking into somebody in the next few weeks.
