このコンテンツについて
The big Steven Spielberg headline lighting up both Hollywood and gamer circles this week is his nearly-realized ambition to direct a live-action Call of Duty movie. According to Vice, Spielberg—an avid gamer and the creative mind behind Saving Private Ryan—personally pitched his vision to Activision, insisting on what insiders call the “Spielberg Deal”: top-of-market economics, final cut, and total creative control over both production and marketing. This lavish level of autonomy and influence, apparently, was more than Activision and Microsoft were prepared to grant, sending senior executives into retreat and opening the door for a competing bid from David Ellison and Paramount. Sources say it was a visceral disappointment for Spielberg, who not only plays Call of Duty himself but helped inspire the shooters genre with his earlier Medal of Honor franchise. Activision instead inked a multi-million dollar deal with Paramount, effectively passing on the unique brand of gravitas Spielberg would have brought to the project. Paramount CEO David Ellison, who is a confessed lifelong CoD fan, is now the public face of the adaptation, promising blockbuster quality reminiscent of Top Gun: Maverick.
The media appetite for the story has been insatiable; The Independent and AOL both report details of the failed Spielberg bid, emphasizing the industry shock at turning down one of the world’s most bankable directors. Social media buzz has been equally intense, particularly on gaming channels, with many fans lamenting what could have been and others speculating about Spielberg’s next possible pivot back to war drama, cinema, or even another video game adaptation. It’s worth noting, as GameFragger and TwistedVoxel observe, that Spielberg’s fingerprints are on the DNA of the Call of Duty series itself, given the number of former Medal of Honor developers who went on to create Infinity Ward and the first CoD game. That twist makes Activision’s decision all the more jaw-dropping and biographically intriguing.
For public appearances, Spielberg has not yet commented directly, and no new interviews or statements have surfaced, suggesting he’s either regrouping or strategically letting the dust settle. No new business ventures, product launches, or major public sightings have been reported in the last 48 hours. However, everyone from entertainment journalists to industry executives are betting that Spielberg’s next move—be it a new historical epic, streaming partnership, or surprise cameo—will be closely watched and widely reported.
