BIG NEWS PlayStation Franchise Getting a Movie in 2015

**Undrey** · 04-23-2013

Ratchet & Clank Movie Announcement - Teaser - YouTube
One of the biggest questions we’ve gotten in the last few years is “When are you going to make a Ratchet & Clank movie?” The truth is, we’ve wanted to do a movie for a long time! Ratchet & Clank’s action, humor and galaxy-spanning adventures have really been the basis for a fantastic game series, and we think it’d translate perfectly to the big screen.

We’ve been looking for the right partner to help us bring a Ratchet & Clank movie to life, and we’re thrilled to announce that Blockade Entertainment and Rainmaker Entertainment are currently in production on Ratchet & Clank’s first cinematic adventure. Insomniac is honored to play a hands-on role with the film’s production, screenplay, character development, and animation consulting. Furthermore, our own Ratchet & Clank writer, T.J. Fixman, who has written all of the recent Ratchet & Clank games, is writing the script for the film as well.

But don’t take my word for it — check out our teaser above.
In additional celebration of the film’s announcement and to tide you over until the premiere, we’ll be offering a sale on all Ratchet & Clank games on PSN the week of April 30 – more details to come! Speaking of more details to come, we know you’re still patiently waiting for Ratchet & Clank: Full Frontal Assault and Ratchet: Deadlocked. While we don’t have any news to share today, stay tuned!

There will be much to come on the Ratchet & Clank movie as we get farther into production and closer to its release. Thanks for all your support of the franchise over the last 10 years, without you, there wouldn’t be a movie!

Never expected this wow.

Live action?

**ecks13** · 04-23-2013

I'm guessing Pixar 3d style..live action would look a little weird, but keeping an open mind...

**ferretbusiness** · 04-23-2013

its all cgi, hopefully it still has their trademark humor instead of dumbing it down for all ages

**harpoharpo5** · 04-23-2013

omg when i read the thread title i thought it would be far cry 3 or something but then i read ratchet and clank i jizzed in my pants

**harpoharpo5** · 04-23-2013

I hope drek is the villain but it will probably be nefarious

**jbmrx** · 04-23-2013

lol didn't see that coming... that's great!!!

**annare41** · 04-23-2013

Not a Ratchet & Clank fan, but it's good to see it's going to be an animated film

**Ace-murderer234** · 04-23-2013

R&C Movie? Yeah!!!

**MAXTHUNDER** · 04-23-2013

Better late than never. If the movie is marketed properly then we can see a lot of new faces coming to SONY's consoles.

**Ghost** · 04-23-2013

I was thinking Infamous before entering the thread. Great news either way, looking forward to it.

**Twitch** · 04-23-2013

It better be CG animated similar to Disney/Pixar films or the like.

If they do live-action it's just.....no.

**Helyx** · 04-23-2013

R&C movie?

I predict failure on the horizon.

**AngeldeLeo** · 04-23-2013

This movie will be awesome no doubt bout it exciting news

**holycrapoly** · 04-23-2013

I hope this is a good movie.

its drek, the story focuses on r & c origin story, so expect to see them meet for the first time and battle drek as he tries to build himself a new planet from parts of other planets

most likely cgi like the cutscenes. live action would be a disaster waiting to happen

My thoughts exactly. When i first saw this posted on facebook by IGN i kinda felt sick and didn't want to look at it. Then a friend of mine posted the trailer on my wall since he knew i was a fan and I decided to give it a look. The trailer actually looks pretty good. If they keep up with what they've got in the teaser, they may be able to make a successful film. Regardless, i'm never too sure about a video game movie. I don't think I even need to mention what happened with the Mortal Kombat movies...
