Sony is making 'Horizon Zero Dawn' live-action movie
Sony is officially turning the hit game Horizon Zero Dawn into a live-action film, with production set for 2026 and a planned release in 2027.
Columbia Pictures—known for PlayStation adaptations like Uncharted and Gran Turismo—is producing. The script is already finished, and this project comes after Netflix's planned series was canceled last year due to issues with its showrunner.

The movie will follow Aloy, the game's iconic hunter navigating a world overrun by machines.
It's part of Sony's push to bring more gaming stories to theaters after the streaming series fell through.
Plus, Sony is currently in a legal fight with Tencent, claiming their upcoming game Light of Motiram copies Horizon's style—a lawsuit that also revealed new details about the film's timeline.
