We know that Electronic Arts has high hopes for their upcoming release of Spore but can the life simulation game from creator Will Wright move into other forms of entertainment? A new Reuters story indicates that EA would love to license the Spore property for a movie or TV series.

Speaking to Reuters during an Asian press junket for Spore, Wright was quoted as saying, "With Spore, we're looking way outside the game space, such as TV, movies, etc. We're basically planting the seeds to spread Spore out to a much wider group of people than would ever play a computer game." One wonders exactly what kind of movie or TV show could handle such a concept or if indeed any other entertainment medium could convey what Spore is like.
