Johan Pilestedt, the COO Of Helldivers 2 developer Arrowhead Game Studios, has revealed the studio will have some involvement in the upcoming movie adaptation of the celebrated title, but in a somewhat limited capacity.
The executive was asked about Arrowhead’s involvement in the movie on X, to which he responded that they would be, but noted that they “are not Hollywood people.”
Hey! I’ve been dodging this question. The short answer is yes. The long answer is that we’ll see. We are not Hollywood people, and we don’t know what it takes to make a movie. And therefore we don’t, and shouldn’t, have final say.
