#METRO 2033 NOVELS MOVIE#
There isn’t just one Call of Duty movie in development – its sequel is already being planned too. The series is overseen by showrunner Scott Rosenbaum, with Randy Pitchford executive producing. Gearbox is developing a live-action series based on the Brothers in Arms games, one that will explore both the Allied and Axis sides of the WWII conflict. Production has officially ended for the Borderlands movie, making a 2022 release likely. The cast also includes Ariana Greenblatt as Tiny Tina, Florian Munteanu as Kreig, Jamie Lee Curtis as Tannis, and Jack Black as Claptrap. Cate Blanchett has been confirmed to star as Lilith, and Kevin Hart will also star as Roland. While news was slow for several years after, Lionsgate surprised fans in February 2020 by announcing Hostel's Eli Roth will direct the movie, with Chernobyl's Craig Mazin penning a new screenplay draft. The Borderlands movie was announced back in 2016, to be produced by Avi and Ari Arad and written by Aaron Berg. The live-action series will be an "epic, genre-bending live action adaptation." The collaboration will "tap into the iconic video game’s trove of dynamic stories" to create live-action, animated and anime series. However, Netflix has announced that it will produce a live-action Assassin's Creed series, executive produced by Ubisoft's Jason Altman and Danielle Kreinik, which will be the first of multiple new projects.

Some online stores give us a small cut if you buy something through one of our links. There's often a bit of difference between the cover art as well depending on what country you're shopping from (or for) but the titles will guide you true. Unless you're an absolute whizz with languages in which case I envy you greatly. However, one bit of advice I would share is to just double check you've got the English translations before you hit the buy button. The books are readily available, particularly from the major retailers. Therefore you know you're getting a consistent and authentic experience hand-guided by the author in both the books and the games. It's important to remember that Glukhovsky himself was directly involved with the work behind the games-he didn't just hand over the books and ideas. The characters, and especially the different factions along the metro lines are also great examples of this where the books set the vision, and the games truly bring them to life. You can see the crossover and what the game developers took from the novels particularly in terms of the environments, setting and overall aesthetic and mood of the books: every miserable, grey and atmospheric description and quality that Glukhovksy outlines in his books are brought to life in the game's oppressive and dim settings, for example. The first game and book are very close and perfectly complement each other. And you'll start to see that straight from the first couple of chapters. It very much helped inspire Metro: Last Light, but the game is not a version of this book. It also continues the bleak, eerie, yet detailed descriptions of that world, and does plenty to reinforce the lore.

It's more to the side of the 'main' plot-line in the series that follows Artyom, but it does feature characters and lots of supporting information and plot-lines. While Metro 2034 is the official continuation of the Metro 2033 story line and universe, it doesn't act as a total, bona-fide or literal sequel, continuing straight on from the previous book.

Not to give too much away but one of Metro 2033's endings is the one that Glukhovsky wrote in the book originally and this is also the one that forms the canon (chosen) ending that sets up the events of the second game Metro: Last Light-but not the next book. It also sets up and introduces readers to Glukhovsky's wider themes and commentaries that he uses his fiction to critique and give his say on. Coming at the front, chronologically in the series and in terms of release dates, you'll want to start with Metro 2033 which sets up the whole Metro universe superbly, from characters to places, from monsters to aesthetics. Rather pleasingly, the series has ascending numbers in the titles so you can't really go wrong. The Metro 2033 books: reading order and beginner's guide
