0A 2017 Horror Video Game Is Getting Adapted Into A Movie
The video game Bendy and the Ink Machine is now getting the big screen treatment. Published by the studio Kindly Beast in 2017, Bendy and the Ink Machine is a first-person survival horror game. Including both action and puzzles, the game follows a man named Henry, who was the lead animator at in-game animation house, Joey Drew Studio, and later receives an invitation from Joey Drew himself years later to return to the workshop.
According to the official Bendy Twitter/X page, Bendy and the Ink Machine will now get a movie adaptation. The post, which can be seen below, included a photo that said, “Bendy is coming to the big screen.”
While the announcement of the Bendy film adaptation is exciting, much of it remains a mystery. The post does not reveal any production details, such as its director, cast, or release date window. Additionally, nothing has been revealed about whether the Bendy and the Ink Machine movie will be live-action or animated. Given Bendy’s existence in the animated world, it would make a lot of sense to make an animated film out of the video game, but with nothing revealed yet, live-action is still on the table.
Even if no specific members of the production team have been mentioned, the Bendy film does have one piece of key information revealed: its production company, Radar Pictures. Founded in 1984, Radar Pictures has produced 80 films in a number of genres. Their 20th century works include Revenge of the Nerds and Mr. Holland’s Opus, while more recent titles include Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle and its sequel, which are expected to be followed with the upcoming Jumanji 4.
Despite the lack of concrete information, the Bendy movie is still an exciting prospect. The video game created a movie universe within its world, and that is likely something that Hollywood is very invested in exploring. If done effectively, the Bendy and the Ink Machine movie could be perfectly self-referential and trippy, making for a new horror hit.
