Kotaku reports that a feature film based on Crysis, the recently released graphics behemoth, is in the planning stages. “A Crysis movie is definitely planned,” revealed Crytek CEO Cevat Yerli. “We are in active talks already. I think we will close this topic before the end of this year.”

The studio’s past franchise, Far Cry, has been turned into a movie and is currently in post-production. Directed by Uwe Boll before he resigned himself from big budget projects, the studio is said to have no involvement in the film since very early when it was a script, according to Yerli. However, he still looks forward to watching it.

He also talks about Far Cry 2, stating that he looks forward to playing it. Yerli also brings up the possibility of being acquired by a larger publisher. “We would have strong requirements in addition,” he noted.

The studio’s next project was also discussed, though no details on it were offered.
