Paramount and Sheridan Collaborate on Call of Duty Movie Adaptation
31 Oct
Summary
- Taylor Sheridan to write Call of Duty movie for Paramount
- Sheridan and director Peter Berg to co-write the project
- Call of Duty is one of the biggest video game franchises ever
In a significant development, acclaimed filmmaker Taylor Sheridan has joined forces with director Peter Berg to write the movie adaptation of the popular video game Call of Duty. The two have a history of successful collaborations, having worked together on the films Hell or High Water and Wind River.
The Call of Duty movie, which is being produced by Sheridan's production company 101 Studios, is a major coup for the duo. As one of the biggest video game franchises ever, with over 500 million copies sold, the film adaptation has been highly anticipated by fans. Rumors of a Call of Duty movie have been swirling for the past decade, but plans were put on hold until Activision announced in September 2025 that it would be working with Paramount Pictures.
Sheridan, who is set to move to NBCUniversal, has managed to secure one more project with Paramount before his contract expires next March. The movie will be co-written by Sheridan and Berg, who are close friends, and the two will also serve as producers on the project.
