In the past, the announcement of a new video game adaptation would often elicit groans from audiences. However, today, these adaptations are becoming major players in Hollywood, and Randy Pitchford, creator of Borderlands, has acknowledged this trend as the reason behind his upcoming movie being approved.

The story takes place on the desert planet Pandora, where a band of misfits are in a race to discover the planet’s hidden treasure. Fans of the games are familiar with the peculiar world of Borderlands, and it is due to the growing popularity of video game adaptations that this world will now be brought to life on the silver screen.
