Sony to Turn Horizon Zero Dawn into a Movie, Not a TV Show

Sony has made the decision to change its Horizon Zero Dawn adaptation from a TV show with Netflix to a movie. Talking to Variety , the PlayStation Productions lead Asad Qizilbash said the TV project in collaboration with Netflix was not "creatively going how we wanted [it] to". Now, a Horizon Zero Dawn film will be made instead.

Qizilbash also said as part of the interview that Sony is considering turning Astro Bot into a feature film . Todd Howard of Bethesda was also part of the piece, and he and Qizilbash agreed how you adapt a video game really matters. While Sony hasn't found success with a TV adaptation of Horizon Zero Dawn, Bethesda very much did with a Fallout series on Amazon Prime.



"Originally, a lot of people were approaching to do a feature film. And looking at what we wanted to do for this one, that felt too compressed, said Howard. "Fallout is such an amazing world — what would we really want to watch in it? Well, we’d like to watch the next story, or new stories in that world, as opposed to, again, in this instance, adapting a story we had told and kind of compressing it down.

For this one, we were very much interested in telling new stories." A second season of Fallout is already going ahead. Would you prefer a Horizon Zero Dawn film over a TV show? Share your preference in the comments below.
