The big-screen bug has bitten Capcom, who is reportedly in talks with Hollywood to turn more of its franchises into feature films. This comes from company president Haruhiro Tsujimoto, who told Bloomberg that they are in the process of working out contracts for several offers they received at the Cannes Film Festival and hope to make an announcement soon.
“We want to do with games what Marvel did with comics,” Tsujimoto added, possibly referring to Marvel’s ability at successfully transferring its franchises to the big screen. “If realized, the projects will have a big impact on the game and movie industries.”
No specific projects were mentioned, but Dead Rising, Lost Planet, Devil May Cry, heck even Pheonix Wright would make interesting movies.

1DEVIL MAY CRY,ONIMUSHA,STREET FIGHTER
AND DARKSTALKERS HIT THE BIG SCREEN.
Capcom is still looking to make more games to film adaptations with Street Fighter The Legend Of Chun Li
with Kristin Kreuk,set to be a 2009 movie release,Resident Evil movies have been successful,so there are talks on live action Devil May Cry and Onimusha which it is set in production directed by Christophe Gans which its now on hold.
Capcom are also talking on more games to go into films like Megaman,Lost Planet,Darkstalkers,Bionic Commando,Dead Rising and Phoenix Wright.
Street Fighter remake would be alright to see.
THank you.
