Paramount Pictures is developing a live-action film set in the world of Cyberpunk 2077, the narrative-driven RPG from CD Projekt Red. The studio will develop the movie while CD Projekt Red and Lorenzo di Bonaventura will produce. Di Bonaventura's credits include action films like Red, Shooter, The Meg, and Michael Bay's Transformers.
The project is in early stages with no plot or cast revealed. It's unclear if this is separate from a 2023 production deal with Anonymous Content. Cyberpunk 2077 continues the trend of successful video game adaptations, following the anime series Cyberpunk: Edgerunners on Netflix, which returns for a second season.
The game itself adapts the tabletop RPG, creating a multi-layered adaptation phenomenon set in Night City.
