This move marks the latest attempt by Hasbro to bring one of its beloved games to the big screen, following the success of Dungeons &amp; Dragons: Honor Among Thieves.<\/p>\n<p><strong>A Perfect Match<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>According to Hasbro&#8217;s head of film, Zev Foreman, the partnership between Hasbro and Legendary Entertainment is an &quot;exciting and complementary&quot; one, uniting two powerful brands to create a new and exciting universe. Magic: The Gathering has inspired decades of epic world-building and creative storytelling, making it a perfect match for Legendary&#8217;s diversified approach to marquee IP.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Plans for the Partnership<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The partnership will begin with a live-action Magic: The Gathering movie, but has the potential to expand to live-action television series and other content should things go well. However, little is known about how Legendary will approach adapting Magic: The Gathering, with questions surrounding whether the movie will be meta about the act of playing the game or follow notable Magic: The Gathering characters as they sling spells and face grand threats.<\/p>\n<p><strong>No Impact on Existing Deals<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The partnership does not change the deal Hasbro has already established with Netflix, where it is developing an animated Magic: The Gathering series with Star Trek: Picard&#8217;s Terry Matalas. This news comes on the heels of Legendary Entertainment&#8217;s recent involvement in other Netflix projects, including the live-action Mobile Suit Gundam movie.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Stay Tuned for Updates<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>We will bring you more information on Hasbro and Legendary Entertainment&#8217;s plans for Magic: The Gathering as and when we learn them.
