The CBS Films Website has details on plans for a film based on the Deus Ex series of action/RPGs, specifically Deus Ex: Human Revolution, the latest installment (thanks nin). Here's word on the writer and director now associated with the production:

CBS Films announced today that Scott Derrickson (Sinister, The Exorcism of Emily Rose) will direct the screen adaptation of the iconic Square Enix video game Deus Ex: Human Revolution. Derrickson will also write the screenplay for the film with C. Robert Cargill (Sinister). Roy Lee and Adrian Askarieh are attached to produce the film with John P. Middleton serving as Executive Producer.

Set in the near future, when dramatic advances in science, specifically human augmentation, have triggered a technological renaissance, Deus Ex: Human Revolution follows Adam Jensen, an ex-SWAT security specialist who must embrace mechanical augments in order to unravel a global conspiracy.

Now we'll have a movie about a guy walking into a room, taking out a guy and searching through cupboards and hacking computers for an hour before proceeding to the next room to do the same.. Just think of how much footage they can get from Adam pulling unconscious bodies into an air vent! Anyway, the story of DE:HR was pretty cool, if a bit predictable, so this might be okay. I've never heard of any of the people involved, but that doesn't really mean much. To be honest, I think the first Deus Ex's story would make a better movie than DE:HR. Creston
