Ridley Scott to Direct "Monopoly" The Movie

"Blade Runner" director Ridley Scott is apparently on-board to helm the upcoming "Monopoly" movie.

"Monopoly" will be based on the popular board game that has entertained millions of families for decades.

Said a Hasbro consultant:

"Hasbro already has cool games like Ouija, which could be a supernatural movie, but we think of Monopoly with Ridley Scott as director or producer, as a massive global hit. Everyone has played Monopoly in one version or another so, hopefully, they would be curious about how it translates to the screen."

I have to go cry now.

Unimpressed:

  4. I hear that Tom Cruise is in talks to play the race car; Ed Norton has expressed interest in the role of the thimble, but Scott really wants a talented unknown for the part.
