Variety reports that Insomniac's Ratchet & Clank franchise (which has sold over 26 million copies worldwide since the first instalment was released in 2002) is being brought to the big screen by Escape from Planet Earth's Rainmaker Entertainment and Blockade Entertainment. With a planned release date of "Early 2015", the movie will be directed by Jericca Cleland based on a script by TJ Fixman. That should come as very good news to fans, especially as Fixman is a senior writer on the games. As if that wasn't exciting enough, key talent from the series will reprise the roles of Ratchet (James A. Taylor), Clank (David Kaye) and Qwark (Jim Ward). "We’ve always thought Ratchet and Clank would be a fantastic all-ages movie and are thrilled our intergalactic heroes will finally get their chance to shine on the big screen,”" Ted Price, founder and CEO of Insomniac Games, told the site. "Insomniac is especially honored to play a hands-on role with the film’s production, including the screenplay, consulting on character development and animation, and adding support to the film’s marketing." Are you guys looking forward to this?
