Ninja Gold Film & Game

Quoted from PCPowerPlay:

Quote:

The Hollywood Reporter reveals that filmmaker John Woo and game designer Warren Spector will collaborate on a new game and film property called Ninja Gold. Released by Fox Atomic (an arm of 20th Century Fox), the Ninja Gold film will be directed by Woo, while Spector has signed on to executive produce.

"Ninja" centers on a ninja warrior, part of a centuries-old legacy and bloodline, forced to confront the reality of covert warfare in the modern world.

"The game concept is actually based on facts that the Yakuza and the Russian mob are involved in tons of gold being stolen in South Africa," said Terrence Chang, Woo's production partner.

Added Spector: "The idea actually started with John Woo. He wanted to do something involving traditional ninjas in a modern-day setting, and the idea just resonated with me. I was intrigued with the idea of what happens when the traditional and the contemporary come into conflict."

Is anyone else with me on just how awesome this would be? We get a film and a game of it too. And it's John Woo. And Warren bloody Spector. If you haven't heard Spector's name before, he's the guy behind Deus Ex, System Shock and Thief: Deadly Shadows.

I'm expecting to see ninjas in slow-motion combat with the world's most elite black-ops units.

If the game's anything like Deus Ex (the first one), I'll be over the moon. Damn that was (and still is) a good game.
