Gears movie not a true prequel, will stay true to video game franchise
In an interview with MTV, Gears of War movie screenwriter Chris Morgan commented on the movie admitting that "it would be a crying shame not to deal with Marcus and Dom" and that it isn't a full-fledged prequel to the video games.
"There are elements to it that can be considered a prequel, but it's not a prequel as far as I'm concerned" commented Morgan, "I want to see 'Emergence Day.' I want to see this stuff happen." As far as the movie's look and content, we're assured that prominent Locust creatures (including the Berserker) will be included in the script and that the film will use a blend of live-action footage and CGI. According to Morgan, Gears movie director Len Wiseman wants to "make it as realistic as possible." We're cool with that.
