New Line Cinema is pumping tons of quarters into the video game-to-film adaptation of Rampage as it’s been announced by Variety that “Colony” executive producers Carlton Cuse and Ryan Condal have been tapped to rewrite the film, which is being directed by Brad Peyton and produced by Beau Flynn.

The director & producer combo are joined by Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson (Doom, Furious 7), who worked with the duo previously on the big earner San Adreas. No details are coming out yet about how the film is going to play out.

The original game allowed players to select either George the Gorilla, Lizze the Lizard, or Ralph the Werewolf and then embark on a mission to destroy city after city, which allowed us to live out our Godzilla-esque fantasies.

Thinking about it, I can see this movie going one of two ways. First idea: it’s super serious and becomes a 2014 Godzilla style film that’s dark, gritty, and shows how the destruction can truly affect and destroy the lives of people. On the other hand, what if the film was almost like a joke and completely embraced the ridiculousness of the game? What if it instead took inspiration from the 1998 Godzilla and slapped a heavy dose of humor and jocularity into the mix?

Either way, I think this movie could be seriously entertaining. And considering that the point of the game is to destroy multiple cities, I think a big expansive movie that uses a lot of CGI makes sense as we’re hopefully going to see destruction on a national level.

No matter what, I’ll be there!
