Helldivers Movie Taps Minecraft's Jason Momoa For Alien Carnage

The PlayStation-backed Helldivers movie will release on November 10, 2027 with Justin Lin of the Fast and Furious franchise directing. Momoa and Lin previously collaborated on Fast X which was critically-panned but did fine at the box office. That over-the-top franchise certainly has parallels to Arrowhead Game Studios' sci-fi parody of inter-galactic war that's loosely inspired by Starship Troopers, but deftly nailing the same tone as the hit PS5 and PC extraction shooter won't be easy.
