Sydney Sweeney Reportedly Set to Star in Split Fiction Movie Adaptation

Wicked director also on board

In case you missed it, yes, the recently released co-op adventure Split Fiction is already being adapted to the big screen, and according to Variety, it already has some big names attached.

In a new report from the publication, Sydney Sweeney is set to star in the film, as well as executive produce.

The actress is known for her roles in Everything Sucks!, Euphoria, and many more. According to Variety's sources, it has yet to be decided which of the two lead characters she will play.

The same report claims that Hollywood director Jon M. Chu will direct the adaptation.

Chu's previous work includes Wicked (and its upcoming sequel), In the Heights, and Crazy Rich Asians.

The screenplay is being written by Rhett Reese and Paul Wernick, who previously penned the script for Deadpool & Wolverine.

If this report is to be believed, there appears to be a lot of solid talent involved in the Split Fiction movie.

The game's story throws together two aspiring writers, Mio and Zoe, who end up stuck in a simulation of their own fictitious worlds. There's potential for this to be a fun action flick, though the focus on co-operative play will of course be lost in the transition.
