Yes, to the very same guy who gave us Saving Private Ryan, the film that basically inspired the DNA of the first Call of Duty movies. According to Puck News, Spielberg wanted full creative control—including even marketing decisions—but Activision decided to say “thanks, but no thanks” and go with Paramount, the same studio behind Top Gun: Maverick. Fans are in shock, and rightfully so: it's like turning down Messi to sign your local league's striker ⚽🤦. The irony is even greater when you remember that Call of Duty was born as a direct response to Medal of Honor, a franchise that Spielberg helped create, and that he even recruited the team that would later found Infinity Ward. But here's the interesting part: directing a film of this caliber isn't just about shooting pretty explosions; it's also about deciding who you cast as the "villain," and that's where things get complicated. Glen Schofield, former Call of Duty director, said he stopped using real countries as enemies because he literally feared he'd never be able to set foot in them again without bodyguards 😬. In the end, what could have been a Spielberg masterpiece turned into a "what if..." worthy of an alternate script. 🎮🔥
