During its CES 2025 keynote, PlayStation Productions head Asad Qizilbash and Screen Gems president Ashley Brucks explained how Sony plans to keep expanding its IP after adaptations of The Last of Us, Gran Turismo, Twisted Metal, and Uncharted.
They announced that Sony Pictures is working on a film adaptation of last year’s hit Helldivers 2, while Columbia Pictures and PlayStation Productions are in “early stages” of developing a Horizon Zero Dawn movie. After an attempt at turning it into a Netflix series fell apart, the HZD movie will, like the game, tell the main character Aloy’s origin story in a fallen futuristic world, but that is all of the information we have about them for now.
Earlier in the presentation, execs also announced that Crunchyroll and Aniplex are teaming up to create an anime series based on Ghost of Tsushima.
Finally, Naughty Dog’s Neil Druckmann took the stage and presented a clip from The Last of Us season 2, which will arrive on Max in April.
