It is time for the "Samurai" to wake up, as the video game *Cyberpunk 2077* has been confirmed for a live-action film adaptation, according to a report by Deadline. Developed by CD Projekt Red, the project will be produced by Lorenzo Di Bonaventura—known for the *Transformers* series—under the Paramount banner.
*Cyberpunk 2077* joins the ranks of video game adaptations produced by Paramount, following titles such as *Call of Duty*, *Halo*, *Sonic the Hedgehog*, and *Street Fighter*. To date, the game has sold over 50 million units since its launch, making it one of the best-selling video games in history.
The story centers on the character V, who seeks revenge for a friend's death caused by the villainous Arasaka Corporation in a futuristic cyberpunk world. Throughout the game, V is haunted by the character Johnny Silverhand, portrayed by Keanu Reeves.
With the film now announced, fans will undoubtedly want to see Keanu Reeves reprise the role. At this stage, the film has yet to secure a director, cast, or script.
