Black Panther writer Joe Robert Cole is writing a sequel to Call of Duty

We haven't heard of any actual movement on a Call Of Duty film adaptation since February, when Sicario: Day Of The Soldado director Stefano Sollima signed on to do a video game adaptation, but it appears that Activision Blizzard, the company that publishes Call Of Duty, has – there are great hopes for this. According to Variety, the company has already hired Black Panther writer Joe Robert Cole to put together a script for the Call of Duty sequel, although the first film has yet to be produced or even have a cast. Hell, it doesn't even have a distributor, so at this point Activision is paying people to work on a movie that can't be made)).

Putting that aside, the Variety story says the first film is an "adaptation of the popular video game," but that's not exactly the correct use of the word in this situation. The Call of Duty series includes many different games, most of which are completely disconnected from each other. If this is an adaptation of the first Call of Duty game, it will be a World War II movie. If it's an adaptation of Call Of Duty 4, which has the most famous storyline, it will be a modern war film with several different war stories. If this is an adaptation of the recently released Call Of Duty: Black Ops 4, it will have no story at all other than people constantly complaining about something. This is all aside from the fact that Joe Robert Cole now needs to write a sequel that could be a direct continuation of what Sollima is doing.

But hey, Activision Blizzard has a ton of money. They can throw them on whatever they want))).
