The main reason for it doing well is because it technically is adapting a novel instead of adapting a video game, despite many looking at this as a video game adaptation. It’s also one of the best adaptations so far.
With video game adaptations being far and few between, creators and fans alike would be smart to look at Netflix’sThe Witcher as a game adaptation in order to get a blueprint for what to do with other projects. The upcomingLast of Us,Uncharted, andMetal Gearadaptations have cast very notable actors, so it looks like these adaptations are being taken more seriously.With Chris Pratt set to play Mario, the video game industry may be the next target of Hollywood.
Things in the film world go through phases.Comic book moviesare the craze as of now. Before it was the western, at one point it was slasher films, and at another point, it was action films. So, video games may be the next. Streaming platforms have noted that the video gaming industry is their biggest competitor, so it may come to a point where both must come together.
