The upcoming Dead by Daylight movie is highly anticipated, especially with Jason Blum and James Wan collaborating to bring the horror video game to the big screen. While the project is still in the early stages, Blum recently shared an update on the film’s progress during New York Comic-Con.
Overview of the Dead by Daylight Movie
Announced last year, the Dead by Daylight movie is being developed by Blumhouse and Atomic Monster, with Jason Blum and James Wan as executive producers. This horror adaptation will bring the popular survival game to life, much to the excitement of its fanbase.
Jason Blum’s Involvement and Update on the Script
During Comic-Con, Jason Blum revealed that the team is still working on the Dead by Daylight movie script. He emphasized the importance of getting the script right before moving forward with production. Blum explained that it could take anywhere from one to five years to finalize, but they won’t move forward until it’s perfect.
Comparison to Five Nights at Freddy’s Movie
Blum compared the Dead by Daylight movie to Five Nights at Freddy’s, a film that took nearly a decade to complete. Blum highlighted that the wait for Five Nights at Freddy’s was worth it, as the movie resonated with fans. He hopes the same dedication will ensure that the Dead by Daylight adaptation lives up to fan expectations.
“It took 10 years to make Five Nights at Freddy’s, and one of the reasons the movie worked is because we spent 10 years getting it right,” said Blum.
Expected Timeline for Dead by Daylight Movie Release
Though there’s no set timeline, Blum mentioned that the Dead by Daylight movie could take anywhere from 12 months to 5 years depending on how long it takes to complete the script. The producers are committed to delivering a quality product rather than rushing the adaptation.
Dead by Daylight Halloween Event and DLC
While the movie is in development, Behaviour Interactive continues to expand the game itself. With Halloween approaching, Dead by Daylight is hosting one of its biggest events of the year. In addition, a Five Nights at Freddy’s DLC is set to release next year, tying the two horror franchises together once more.
