If you love well done fantasy movies, you must also love the work of Guillermo del Toro. The Mexican director behind such great movies like Mimic, The Devil's Backbone, Pan's Labarinth, and most recently Hellboy 2 had been slated to take on the two-movie adaptation of The Hobbit. del Toro recently left that project but has written the upcoming horror film Don't Be Afraid of the Dark which is due out in January 2011.However del Toro is also a big gamer and in a brief chat with MTV News he revealed that very soon there will be an announcement "with a big company" about the games he is helping to make. del Toro states, "It's not a development deal. We're going to do it. We're doing them." Sounds like there could be a reveal by Gamescom time. Besides saying that the games he is helping to make will be "technically and narratively very interesting" del Toro didn't say anything else on his future game plans.


I hope the announcement is that he's NOT working on a game. Filmmakers suck at making games.Posted at 10:05AM on Jul 29th 2010 by antisocialfatman
