It's the hottest thing for Hollywood fat cats to do: In-between making things explode and vacationing, they'll attach their name to a video game so, as long as the young people of the universe are spending more and more time away from the movieplex, at least they're spending time with your (brand) name.
Peter Jackson;
Steven Spielberg;
John Woo;
Jerry Bruckheimer;
Vin Diesel – you get the idea.
Variety is reporting that Tony "Top Gun" Scott was similarly attached to Midway's
recently canceled – albeit never announced – Austin project,
Career Criminal. Of course, Midway won't confirm the information since, well, it never announced that the game existed in the first place, remember? The silver lining: Scott's free to work on our long-dreamed-of video game adaptation of The Last Boy Scout. Think about it: Bruce Willis' likeness and voice, that's the stuff
hits are made of.
