American Pie producer Warren Zide will bring Namco's fighting game to the big screen.

What do American Pie's Stifler and Soul Calibur's Sophitia have in common? Two words: Warren Zide. According to The Hollywood reporter, the Pie and Final Destination producer has purchased the film rights to Namco's fighting game series.

While no date has been set, the project will be Zide's first under his new Sony-based production banner, Anthem Pictures. Matthew Rhodes, Noel Vega, and Jesse Warshal will co-produce.

While no details were given on the Soul Calibur movie's plot, it is likely it will take elements from the original Dreamcast and arcade game as well as Soul Calibur II, its arcade, PlayStation 2, Xbox, and GameCube sequel. Both games concern a cast of mighty warriors, lots of brutal hand-to-hand combat, and the all-powerful Soul Edge.

GameSpot will have more details on the Soul Calibur movie as its preproduction nears.


Oh hell no.
Sammo Hung was set to direct a SC movie years ago, that could've turned out to be special. It is fun to think of how awefull a Hollywood Soul Calibur produced by people who'll aim it at the same sort of audience that'd see American Pie and Final Destination would turn out.

Why is there no mention of soulblade in this?

If I'm not mistaken, it sounds like a plan to just merge both games reguardless of the timeframe into their own fairy tale version of what they see this as. Following story don't mean shit!

I might bite later, if not just to see Ivy and Taki's tits.

CAST BRIDGETTE WILSON as Sophitia.

Funny, I was just thinking of casting Bridgette Nelson as Ivy.

Haven't seen her in a tough chick role since Red Sonja.

If Marilyn Manson doesnt take the role of Voldo then this movie doesnt need to be made.....on second thought, .....this movie probably DOESNT need to be made.Manson or not.
