GN Version 5.0

Netflix has been dabbling with video game adaptations for awhile now, and they've had some serious success. There's an Angry Birds series in the works, the Witcher has been a phenomenal hit, and Castlevania's fourth season is in the works now. Next up on the slate of gaming collaborations is a live-action version of Dragon's Lair.

Netflix announced the news via Twitter today, and they say that Ryan Reynolds is in talks to play Dirk the Daring. Even better, the original Dragon's Lair team of Don Bluth, Roy Lee, Trevor Engelson, Gary Goldman and Jon Pomeroy are on board to produce the feature. Daniel and Kevin Hageman, who handled the LEGO Ninjago: Masters of Spinjitzu series, and also assisted with The LEGO Ninjago Movie, are set to write the feature.
