Universal has chosen Patrick Melton and Marcus Dunstan to rewrite the God of War movie adaptation. Charles Roven and Alex Gartner are producing the film via Atlas Entertainment.
David Self, who is executive producing, wrote the initial draft for God of War. Melton and Dunston have writing credits on four installments of the Saw horror franchise. They branched out with a script for Monstropolis that got them on board with Guillermo del Toro and now they’re working him on Pacific Rim.
