It Takes Two is being adapted for film and TV by the Sonic movie writers
Developer Hazelight partners with production company dj2 Entertainment
It Takes Two is set to be adapted for film and television.
Developer Hazelight has teamed up with dj2 Entertainment, the production company behind the Sonic the Hedgehog films, to bring It Takes Two to a wider audience, Variety reports.
Published by EA in March 2021, It Takes Two is a co-op adventure which has sold over three million copies and won multiple high-profile awards.
It tells the story of a husband and wife seemingly headed for divorce, who are forced to work together to escape a fantastical world after being transformed by magic into living dolls.
Sonic movie writers Pat Casey and Josh Miller will adapt the game for film and TV.
“Since it has a strong narrative with many crazy characters and just as crazy co-op action moments, the potential is huge for a great adaption to film or television,” said Hazelight founder and creative director Josef Fares.
