Formalized a little over a year ago, the film adaptation of Ghost of Tsushima has its screenwriter. This is indeed what Deadline reveals, which announces that Takashi Doscher will be in charge of the script. Our colleagues recall that it was he who directed and wrote Only (presented at the Tribeca Film Festival in 2019), knowing that his first feature film was Still in 2018. He is also behind the documentary A Fighting Chance dedicated to amputee athlete Kyle Maynard, and is currently working on his next film, Blue. There is no doubt that working on Ghost of Tsushima is an opportunity for him to increase his notoriety, provided that the result lives up to expectations.
For the record, Chad Stahelski, the director of the John Wick saga, is in charge of the project. "His visionary spirit and years of experience have allowed him to achieve some of the most memorable action scenes of all time," said game director Nate Fox at the time of the announcement. If anyone can recreate the tension of Jin's katana fights, it's Chad Stahelski." With more than 8 million copies sold across the planet, the title of Sucker Puch is one of the greatest successes of the PS4, knowing that the PS5 had the opportunity to host the Director's Cut last August. Of course, all fans hope that the adventures of Jin Sakai will be entitled to a sequel, a hypothesis that tends to strengthen over the months.
