Bryan Cogman is to rewrite Simon Kinberg's script for the Magic: The Gathering movie...
Plans are still afoot to bring Magic: The Gathering to the big screen, and news now reaches us that a writer has been hired for the project.
Bryan Cogman has been recruited to rewrite the screenplay previously put together by Simon Kinberg - who is staying on board the project as producer - which is based around the hugely successful card game of the same name. Cogman is a writer, producer and story editor on Game Of Thrones.
20th Century Fox is developing the project, although no director has been hired yet that we know of. Don't expect the movie for a little while yet, then.

I really hope they base this on the older stories like Urza and his brother or maybe Gerrard and the Weatherlight. I'd love to see Phyrexia on the big screen. I can't see Fox investing a ton of money in to this though so I'm not getting my hopes up.
