Louis Leterrier, director of theClash of the Titansremake andTransporter 2, is into videogames. What he’s not into, however, is Namco Bandai’sgame adaptationof his film. He told MTV Multiplayer that while he’d “love to be involved” with the project, the people making the tie-in are “just far, far away from” him.
“If I work on a game, I want to work on agamegame. It’s kinda hard to work on a movie and on your game at the same time,” admits Leterrier. “There’s so much freedom in games these days. There’s no limit to the story that you can tell in games.”
“TakeBioShock, for example, orLost Planet,” he continues. “It transposes you to another planet. The first game that I was hooked on wasMetal Gear Solid. I needed to know what was happening. That’s what I’d love to do, something with great storytelling and interactive play.”
