Kinberg, who is also working on Star Wars, X-Men and Fantastic Four, will be tasked with taking this massive world and leading it in a filmable direction. It’s a task no one at Universal was able to do in the years the property was at that studio, so it’ll obviously be a challenge. While the card game, at its roots, isn’t a narrative experience, over the years a set of characters and concepts have been written that are now familiar to dedicated players. Whether they’ll be part of the film is unknown at this point, but it seems likely that some notable Planeswalkers will show up on screen.
Do you think Magic: The Gathering could make a good film? Is Kinberg the man to do it? Or are you worried he’s spreading himself too thin with so many properties?
