The game-to-movie pipeline appears to be in full swing, especially after the meteoric success of Nintendo’s 2023 animated comedy The Super Mario Bros. movie. Now Margot Robbie, the star of Barbie (the only film to beat Mario (top box office worldwide last year) will produce a film adaptation of Electronic Arts’ hugely popular franchise The Sims, accordingly The Hollywood Reporter.
As The Hollywood Reporter…reported…on March 20th The Sims is in the hands of Robbie’s production company LuckyChap Entertainment, with Kate Herron (Loki, The last of us) should lead the project. Herron will also co-write the screenplay Briony Redmanan actress who appeared in a number of British short films and shows and also wrote the sixth episode of Doctor Whois the newest season. American film and television production company Vertigo Entertainment recently produced the 2023 supernatural horror film Five nights at Freddy’s and the black horror anthology series Them, will co-produce the project alongside Robbie’s LuckyChap. EA, the publisher of The SimsIt says that it will “be active creatively and productively”. THR.
There have been no casting announcements yet. While LuckyChap is producing the film, it’s unclear whether Robbie will actually appear in it. However, The Sims makes sense for LuckyChap. As The Hollywood Reporter As mentioned, Barbie is just a toy with no firmly established narrative. Rather, children who play with Barbie have the freedom to create their own stories. Similar, The Sims is merely a life simulator that also has no established narrative, giving players the freedom to create all sorts of scenarios and assign all sorts of meaning to their Sims’ lives. So, similar to that Barbie film, those with the Sims Film should have a lot of creative freedom when it comes to interpreting the games for the big screen. As long as the characters speak Simlish, the invented language of the gamethen we’ll all be fine.
