Brad Pitt seems to be in the running to play the lead in a film adaptation of the video game hit Red Dead Redemption. says Showbiz Spy
Or is he?
The action-adventure Western video game from the creators of the fellow hit Grand Theft Auto series is set in the American Old West and follows a former outlaw named John Marston.
When Marston's wife and son are taken hostage by the government in exchange for his services, he sets out to bring his three former gang members to justice.
Released for multiple systems back in May, the game has sold five million copies and received universal critical acclaim.
“The idea is to make this in the style of an epic Western movie but with a few modern touches. Brad is perfect for the role and he is being given first refusal” says a source
The report is very much in question though as there's been absolutely no talk of a film adaptation as yet, let alone anyone being remotely connected to such a project.
Rockstar Games did not deny the report telling IGN only that they "do not comment on rumors or speculation".
