Asteroids comes to the big screen

Atari’s Asteroids heading to the big screen!

Universal Us has won the movie rights to classic Atari video game Asteroids.


Originally released in 1979, Asteroids involved a triangular space ship fighting off rocks and flying saucers in an asteroid field.


As there was no storyline involved in the game, a plot will be developed from scratch.


Matthew Lopez (Race To Witch Mountain) is currently penning the script for the adaptation
