As mentioned by the upcoming film’s production company
Last year, we heard about aplannedThiefmovie, but there’s apparently even more in store for the shadowy franchise. Production company Straight Up Films has alisting pagefor the “action adventure” feature-length film that also mentions an as-yet-unannounced newThiefgame:
“Widely considered to be one of the greatest games ever created, a fifth sequel is currently in development to be released in step with this motion picture adaptation. Steeped in the steam-punk world created by the video game, the film will tell a new chapter in the storied world of the series’ hero.”
Ordinarily, I wouldn’t think twice about a new installment popping up in a long-running series, but given how disappointed people were with 2014’sThief, this is a curious one. Do they continue down that reboot path, or change course? Guess we’ll see how E3 goes.
