Heavenly Sword

Pinch yourself, because it’s definitely the day for unexpected movie adaptation announcements. In addition to the Ratchet & Clank Movie, animation outfit Blockade Entertainment has also revealed that it’s working on a direct-to-video film based on Heavenly Sword, the Ninja Theory-developed PlayStation 3 exclusive starring warrior Nariko.

Details about the movie are frustratingly scarce, but it will definitely be a computer graphics affair. There’s no word on whether the UK studio behind the original title is collaborating on the flick, but we’d assume that it's had some involvement. Naturally, this doesn’t seem like as good a cinematic fit as Ratchet & Clank – but it does make us wonder if Kai and company are poised to make a comeback on the PlayStation 4.
