One of the most successful games in history is coming to the big screen.
According to The Hollywood Reporter, Margot Robbie with her production company LuckyChap, along with Vertigo Entertainment’s Roy Lee and Miri Yoon, are producing the film adaptation of The Sims.
The game’s publisher, Electronic Arts, will also be involved in creative and producing activities, and Kate Herron, known as the director of the first season of Loki, will write the script with Briony Redman.
The Sims is a life simulation computer game in which you can create a character by customizing their appearance and personality traits, and perform everyday tasks such as cooking dinner or cleaning. And it’s one of the best-selling video game franchises of all time, selling more than 200 million copies since its launch in 2000 (it’s since expanded with tons of sequels and expansion packs – so characters can try their hand at show business, learning, or even magic) . .
LuckyChap is currently considered one of the most successful production studios in Hollywood thanks to the billion-dollar success of Barbie, which starred co-founder Margot Robbie. On a certain level, The Sims has the same characteristics as Barbie – there is no real narrative in the game, just like a doll that has an endless number of looks and professions.
LuckyChap also produced Saltburn for Prime Video and the Aubrey Plaza comedy My Old Ass, which sold to Amazon MGM Studios at the Sundance Film Festival for $15 million.
