Universal would be responsible of releasing the movie in North America, while fox would the get the world.

Microsoft was originally asking for $10 million up-front and a percentage of the film's gross, but that deal was reportedly too much for the studios to stomach. No details on the new deal have been announced. Part of the original deal that may have remained intact is an agreement that the studio adhere to strict guidelines that have been set by the developers.

No directors have been linked to the project.
