Dark Horizons has word on plans for a film based on Metro 2033, the Russian sci-fi novel that inspired a first-person shooter of the same name (thanks nin), as well as an upcoming video game sequel. Here's word:

Set in 2033 after a nuclear holocaust devastates Moscow and survivors head under ground, the story follows a young survivor who is forced to go on a journey that will see him deal with mutants, soldiers of a Fourth Reich and political factions of various metro stations in order to reach above ground.

F. Scott Frazier ("Line of Sight," "Day One") will adapt the script while Mark Johnson ("The Chronicles of Narnia" series, "Galaxy Quest") will produce along with Eugene Efuni and Marina Hall.
