Movie adaptation of Tom Clancy’s The Division in the works starring Jake Gyllenhaal

Jake Gyllenhaal will be trying his hand at another video game to movie adaptation, with the news (via Variety) that he will produce and star in a Tom Clancy’s The Division movie. The game on which the film will be based was released earlier this year in March, and has already become Ubisoft’s fastest-selling product. So it seems fairly obvious to make a movie adaptation.

Movie adaptations haven’t been doing so well this year though, which isn’t a huge surprise, but The Division might not be such a bad property to try to adapt, what with it being so open to interpretation and with a high sense of realism. Plus Jake Gyllenhaal does have experience of these types of movies, having previously portrayed the leading man in Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time. We’ll update you when we hear anything more.
