Space Invaders: The Movie?

Producer Lorenzo di Bonaventura must really love the late 70's/80's. He's a producer on all three Transformers films, as well as GI Joe, and a planned remake of Pet Sematary. We can now add Space Invaders to the list, as Heat Vision is reporting that he's teaming up with Odd Lot Entertainment to develop a movie based on the popular video game.

As there is no real storyline behind the game, they will be searching for a writer who can wrap up the game elements into a brand new story. Lorenzo di Bonaventura is also producing an Asteroids film which is based off the classic arcade game, so it will be interesting to see how many of these older video game properties actually make it into full feature films. Space Invaders was a fun game, but we're still pulling for a survival horror/sci-fi version of Pac-Man (well... not really, but it could work...).
