Paramount Pictures is developing a live-action adaptation of Cyberpunk 2077, with CD Projekt Red and producer Lorenzo di Bonaventura attached to the project. Deadline and Variety reported the news on October 8, 2026, though no specifics about the film's story, cast, or release date have been shared. CDPR co-CEO Michał Nowakowski stated the company is 'excited about Paramount as a future partner' but emphasized that details will be revealed later.
The adaptation comes as part of a broader trend of video game movies, with Paramount also working on live-action versions of Street Fighter and Call of Duty. Di Bonaventura, known for his work on the Transformers franchise and the 2005 Doom film, will serve as a producer. The project follows the success of other game-based films like Sonic the Hedgehog and Super Mario Bros., which have shifted perceptions of video game adaptations.
Cyberpunk 2077, which sold over 40 million copies worldwide, is set in the dystopian Night City and follows mercenary V, who teams up with the cybernetic persona of Johnny Silverhand. The game, initially criticized upon its 2020 launch, has since been revitalized through updates and the 2025 expansion Phantom Liberty. CD Projekt Red is also developing a sequel, Cyberpunk 2, though no release date has been announced.
