The mystery title where players must figure out the suspect, locale and murder weapon was adapted into a comedy in 1985 that starred Tim Curry and Madeline Kahn.
Universal, under its deal with Hasbro's Allspark Pictures arm had been developing a new version for years, with no success. In 2016, the game company snatched the rights back and set up the Fox attempt. Now Reynolds will produce and potentially star in the movie, which makes us think the comic element will still be strong with this one. Another clue – sorry, couldn't resist – is the actor bringing aboard Deadpool writers Rhett Reese and Paul Wernick.
It sounds like Reynolds is getting more and more into the mystery-solving game, between this and Detective Pikachu, in which he's also starring. Before that film arrives, though, he'll be back in quippy, deadly form as Wade Wilson in Deadpool 2, due out on 16 May this year.
