Director Roland Emmerich has earned the reputation for destroying things, whether it was in Independence Day or the Day After Tomorrow, so its no surprise that Universal Pictures is offering the German filmmaker the reins to turn the 1979 Atari video game Asteroids into a movie, at least that’s what the rumor is going around.
Universal has been developing the feature with a producer from a scrip after purchasing the rights two years ago. The story goes onto say that the movie is being seen as a sequel to films the Independence Day after the earth has been destroyed and the aliens have won with humans living on colonies within an asteroid belt along with aliens who they learn were responsible for Earth’s destruction. Since the movie won’t involve earth being destroyed, they surmise that is won’t go against Emmerich’s recent declaration that he was done making movies in which he destroyed earth. However, there has been nothing confirmed that he will agree to do it, but he does seem like the most obvious director to make the movie due to content and resumed scale, and we are sure we will hear more soon if he digs the script and feels like going back to epic movies filled with destruction following his upcoming drama Anonymous, which has just moved to October 28th. Asteroids will be released by Universal Pictures and is classified as a sci-fi film.
