Metroid film still on pause

Contrary to pre-E3 rumors, production for an upcoming Metroid film remains unscheduled. This news was recently confirmed by Nintendo producer Yoshio Sakamoto in an interview with Nintendo Dream. However, the movie rights are still owned by action aficionado John Woo. Sakamoto reports that production could be a long way off given Woo's company's current priority, the Spy Hunter film adaptation.
