Call of Duty

The potential ‘Call of Duty’ director Stefano Sollima already has his two leads in mind.

Back in 2015, Activision created Activision Blizzard Studios, which was in charge of coming up with ideas for how to turn their “vast library of intellectual property” into films and TV shows. It’s an ambitious undertaking, given the vast amount of video game content they have at their disposal, and now, after almost two years, a team of writers has planned out a Call of Duty cinematic universe.

When I was a kid, it was all about Nintendo. And as a Nintendo-playing movie lover, I always gravitated to games based on movies, like Ghostbusters and Ghostbusters II, which were released by a company named Activision. Now Activision Blizzard is the publisher behind some of the biggest franchises in gaming, including Call of Duty, Skylanders, and Guitar Hero and, they announced today, they’re goi

A couple of weeks ago, we saw a brief teaser for Call of Duty Online featuring ‘Captain America’ star Chris Evans. Today brings the full live-action trailer for the new game, in which Evans goes from Marvel superhero to video game war hero, fighting alongside his fellow players in a promo for the new Chinese game. Yes, that’s right—Call of Duty Online was made exclusively for China. Sorry, guys.

Over the last few years or so, Activision has been featuring beloved actors in their Call of Duty trailers. Just a couple of months back, Taylor Kitsch and Emily Ratajkowski (‘Gone Girl’) starred in the trailer for Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare, which was directed by Peter Berg.

When you think patriotism and answering the call of duty, you obviously think Captain America.

He does not have a problem telling anyone -- even Conan O'Brien -- to just move out of his damn way when he and his "clan" come through (admittedly, they do have a pretty cool name, which Ice is not afraid to share).

"Cat is out of the bag," tweeted Kevin Spacey as he and Activision unveiled the Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare trailer, which both previews one hell of an action-packed game and prominently features the 'House of Cards' star as he readies to bring some Underwood-ian power-mongering to the video game world.

For the first time in franchise history, Activision and Treyarch are making a paid Call of Duty add-on 100% free for a limited time. This weekend, you'll be able to enjoy all the maps and features of Call of Duty: Black Ops 2's Revolution pack with no cost.

It's no secret we're pretty big into video games and the whole idea of bringing some of the fan favorites to life on the big screen. With Ghost Recon, Assassin's Creed, Splinter Cell, Deus Ex, Need for Speed and God of War as the latest ones to start preliminary motions for their companion movies, we still have our own list of bestsellers we'd like to see join in on the action, one of which is def
