Chris McKay (The LEGO Batman Movie, Nightwing) is in talks to direct the upcoming Dungeons and Dragons film for paramount Pictures, according to Variety.
Dungeons and Dragons, the quintessential role-playing game, first became popular in 1974, and since then has amassed millions of players and fans worldwide.
The film is one of the projects set to start off the new AllSpark Pictures, which was launched last October.
Back in 2016, Ansel Elgort (The Fault in Our Stars, Baby Driver) was in negotiations for the lead role in Dungeons and Dragons.
