Sega’s 1993 “Eternal Champions” is Set for a Movie Adaptation

Sega’s classic fighting game, Eternal Champions, is getting a movie adaptation. The news comes from a report by The Hollywood Reporter, which reveals that Derek Connolly, known for his work on the Jurassic World trilogy and Detective Pikachu, will be penning the screenplay for the live-action film.

Skydance and Sega Team Up for Production

The movie will be produced by Skydance, with David Ellison, Dana Goldberg, and Don Granger leading the production efforts. Toru Nakahara, who played a key role in the success of the Sonic the Hedgehog movies, will oversee the project for Sega.

Eternal Champions was a unique fighting game that featured characters from various historical periods. The game’s storyline centers around the “Eternal Champion,” a mysterious entity who predicts humanity’s extinction due to the deaths of key individuals throughout history. The Eternal Champion temporarily saves these individuals and organizes a tournament to determine who will be granted a second chance at life.

This adaptation is part of a growing trend in Hollywood to bring classic video games to the big screen.
