Zack Snyder isn’t against the idea of directing a blockbuster Netflix video game adaptation Dave Bautista is desperate to star in

With his Netflix contributions so far extending to an original zombie actioner Zack Snyder to turn his attention to a pre-existing IP under his development deal with the streaming service.

Of course, those calls for Gears of War.

Naturally, the speculation is already running wild given that Dave Bautista has made no bones about his long-held desire to play the lead role of Marcus Fenix.

As things stand, then, all Snyder said is that Gears of War would make for a great movie, but it goes without saying that certain corners of social media are already crossing their fingers in the hopes it comes to fruition. It’s an easy sell, to be fair, because the Army of the Dead duo re-teaming for a post-apocalyptic fantasy sounds right up their respective alleys, but it remains to be seen what ends up being the filmmaker’s first Netflix project post-Rebel Moon.
