The movie rights for the game The Sims have been bought by 20th Century Fox, Variety is reporting.
The Sims, a computer game that simulates real life, is the best-selling PC game of all time. It is also stunningly boring, if you ask me. But don't tell my Sims-loving husband that.
Since the whole point of game is that you are controlling this simulated "real-life" for your group of Sims people, I'm not exactly sure how that is going to translate to the screen.
What we do know is that the movie is going to be live-action, and will be written by Brian Lynch (Scary Movie 3) and produced by John Davis (Norbit, Eragon). No release date is scheduled as yet.
