I have played all the Metro games several times since release, and the second one is probably my favourite. Wandering the claustrophobic underground tunnels of the metro, beneath fallen Moscow, was and still is very entertaining. Unfortunately, I haven’t read the books yet, even if I do own the first one. Eventually I will, though, and definitely before its official movie hits the theatres. Yeap, you read that right; a Metro 2033 movie is actually happening.
“The book by this Russian author has become known throughout the world, and it is embedded in the cultural code of sci-fi fans and gamers all over the planet. For us and Gazprom Media Holding, this is a dream project, the most ambitious and large-scale film that we have ever launched. We intend to invest an unprecedented sum … in the production and promotion of this movie both in Russia and abroad.” Valery Fedorovich, producer
Metro: Exodus, the latest game, did not sit well with some players. That is because the developers decided to move on from the metro tunnels to something more open. Personally I really enjoyed Exodus since it reminded me one of my favourite games which is none other than S.T.A.L.K.E.R.
“’Metro 2033’ is my first novel. It played a very special role in my life, and, despite getting numerous offers to [adapt it for the screen], I turned them all down for over 10 years. In Russia, I didn’t see any producers who could make a good [screen adaptation of] this book. It just seemed impossible. But now I finally met a team that I can entrust ‘Metro’ with. Our ambitions turned out to be similar: to create a world-class blockbuster and stun even those who have read the trilogy and know it by heart. So as not to disappoint them, I am ready to become a creative producer of the movie and help create it with both my advice and action.” Dmitry Glukhovsky
Now I know what you all probably thinking; “oh shit not another video game movie adaption”. Well it is not. This is actually a book adaption but still, I’m pretty sure the producers are counting on the millions who have played the games to buy a movie ticket. So I’m guessing they want to please everyone, something that usually fails. Even so I hope for the best.
“In the last decades, a real mass culture cult of post-apocalyptic fiction has taken shape in our country, therefore, it bears great box-office potential. Books by the Strugatsky Brothers and Dmitry Glukhovsky, ‘The Fallout’ and ‘The Last of Us’ video games, the ‘Walking Dead’ series, and the ‘Mad Max’ [movies] are just a few titles on the list of those that are popular with Russians of all ages. That’s why we are planning the largest-scale advertising campaign we have ever done.” Evgeniy Nikishov, producer
Kudos to Mr. Glukhovsky for not giving in to Hollywood offers. Do you imagine this taking place in Washington? Thank god it didn’t happen. Hopefully these producers will stay true to the original source material.
“’Metro 2033’ is a cult novel that has played a great role in the development of a whole generation. Regarding cinema production, this work is difficult to adapt for the screen but it will undoubtedly pay off as a major hit at the box office.” Vadim Vereshchagin, producer
The movie premiere will be on January 1st, 2022.
Thanx Variety

Yes.
they turned this pile of junk in to pure anti-soviet/russophobia propaganda which is pretty much expected from ukrogabonian pro-maidan “dev”
Don’t you have countries to invade, Dimitri?
right because soviets did nothing wrong right?
Any factual evidence you care to share if the atrocities USSR committed? In the meantime don’t forget to acquaint yourself with the US history of invasions throughout the whole 20th century, racial segregation, native Americans genocide, nuclear bombing two cities, UK policy that lead to hunger and millions of dead in India etc.
TLDR: hey your head out of your behind and maybe look around you, imbecile.
AHAHHAHA is this a joke? You dont know anything about the kulaks? You never read gulagl archipelago? 6-7 million ukranians dead. Why do the ukranians fear the russians, the soviets no less? I guess we will never know, 100 million dead because of communism, nope nothing wrong here. Dont go around talking about racial segregation, the soviets hated anyone who wasnt white and the genocided christians. Dont talk about hunger the soviet union is number one on that one. But most importantly dont talk about imperialism. The soviets invaded Afghanistan first before the americans, the locals took up arms and became the Mujahideen to stop the communist invasion and the americans gave them weapons to fight them, they took the guns and became taliban, whose descendants, isis is what we are fighting till this very day. COMMUNISM CREATED ISIS. None of this would have happen if the soviets did not invade Afghanistan for resources, but i keep forgetting communism is not imperialistic, only the americans are.
Another client of a psychiatric institution.
obviously comrade anyone who doesnt agree that communism is great was diagnosed clinically insane and was sent to the psychiatric ward. The kulaks obviously starved themselves to death they were insane, meanwhile Lysenko was totally sane.
You’re obviously into sadomasochism. Have fun licking the boots of your oppressors!
Who are my oppressors commie?
Idiot they have studios in the Ukranian and Malta nothing to do with the UK.
lul! did i mentioned somewhere UK?

Hitler was bad but Stalin totally wasn’t, remember that tovarisch
Hitler was a brilliant man, he was not bad in any way unless you read too much american propaganda. killing and exiling jews to save your economy and people isn’t bad in any way.
you are totally clueless and full of sh*t!
We’re all mocking you for defending the soviets.
You’re the only one clueless about that fact.
you know what is the difference between us? me and my family was born and lived in that country while you are full of libtard sH*t orchestrated by deep state controlled MSM propaganda. i have full picture to see the difference. your corrupted elite killed more people than anything else on this planet during neocolonial wars. hell yeah! even managed to exterminate ~600k of own during nuclear testing era and poisoned own lands with nuclear fuel wastes,pesticide/GMO’s & hydraulic fracturing. just go ask some people from “rust belt” how they are doing )) all you have are just numbers pulled out of own @$$. i can tell you more but i’m very limited by language barriers.
Sh**ting on communist Russia =/= Defending the United States of Israel
where you saw communism in Russia you dumbfk? do you even can define what “communism” means?
I too remember when the Soviets totally didn’t commit genocide within their own country, ethnic cleansing, starve their own people to death, and form an ideological government that went on and is responsible for killing 100M people.
They dindu nuffin wrong.
Lol. Somebody sure has had too much of fiction titled “The Gulag Archipelago”. Care to provide any factual evidence of all that your brainwashed little mind has managed to conjure up?
And while you’re doing that don’t forget to acquaint yourself with the US history of invasions throughout the whole 20th century, racial segregation, native Americans genocide, nuclear bombing of two cities, UK policy that lead to hunger and millions of dead in India etc.
Hahahahaha, the old moving of the goal posts to take away from the fact that communism is the result of 100m deaths across the world. Its ok. Certainly didn’t kill nearly or above 200k during Red Terror. Maybe some 300K+ during the Kulak resettlement enforcement. 10m+ certainly didn’t die from famine as a result of Communism within the country. 700K+ during the Great Terror. Nor did they kill nearly another 400k+ between 29′ and 53′. Cambodia, Vietnam, China, Cuba, NK, Eastern Europe’s along with other countries death tolls that enforced communism? Mere fabrications and not reality.
Man, you need psychiatric help.
He is right thou
you are full of CNN sh*t! just google “let them drink milk” and that was between 300K and 640K of american people dead, add here middle east oil wars, vietnam, afganistan. all those Soljenitsin & Suvorov (aka Rezun) where nothing more than just prostitutes who sold their dignity for money and stupid people like you took their fairy tales as truth )
F*k off Slavlover.
USSR started the afghan war.
USSR supplied for FREE, all the Arab armies around Israel and trained them.
USSR was responsible for all the wars in the middle east during their period.
dude! from what source you taking that much rt@d3d nonsense? USSR campaign in Afganinstan had only one goal! to push out wahabis & opium production away from our borders! and we accomplished those goals! while muricnts supported mujahedin’s. later Gorbachiov’s/Eltsin’s denominated all of this by pure treason and we got second Chechen war with wahabis, dozens of terr-acts and raised up narco-traffic and later Al’Quaeda/ISIS and all kind of this sh*t after one r3t@r3d nation decided to perform some oil wars in ME. and what a surprise )) WITH FULL SUPPORT OF ISRAHELL. now we have to purge mur1cnt proxy’s in Syria. Gadafi warned EU about hoards of emigrants but no one wanted to listen him. EU with its r3t@rd3d bureaucracy is doomed! you know! all we need to is just wait and counter everything trying to cross our borders & wipe proxy’s/all kind of ONG’s trying to start mess inside our country while you guys have to deal with trillions of debt bubble blast consequences! and believe me! no one will save your a**es this time! be proud of your so called economy ))) you can still brag here how much trillions made of thin air your country can spend yearly ) the sh*t will hit the fan after black friday! so be prepared)
The source material is inherently anti Soviet. It couldn’t have been any other way because the author of that “fiction” for children is a massive antisovietist and just all around piece of human excrement.
Epic Store exclusive.
Great ! In that case let’s all buy three copies to support them? Go gamers.
By the time this movie is released, epic store will have movies in there and this will be an exclusive to epic store.
Very likely!
But still wont have a forum
ROFLROFLROFLROFL
Excellent news!

Starring:Olga Kurylenko,Milla Jovovich and random Russian guy…plus Asian and black actor as a mercenary soldier for diversity cast. And a special appearance by Tim Sweeney as General Timclusimov Fartnivic
Russians dont have diversity casts
The cast above if it’s made by Hollywood,not Russian..
Might as well be movies than videogames, the videogames are linear scripted cinematic tripe on par with Sony exclusives.
Adapting a movie into a movie? It’s called a reboot.

“Now I know what you all probably thinking; “oh sh*t not another video

So, allegedly, is the SJW cancer The Witcher movie!
This one not made in the USA, so no SJWs
“A production company that makes cookie-cutter comedies and sh*tty blockbusters.
The Russian equivalent of MTV/CW (with a splash of Jerry Springer)
Russian equivalent of History Channel/A&E
And for some reason the Russian equivalent of Facebook is signed on to do something with the movie.”
^ All the logos at the bottom of the poster that has been released for the movie.
Curb your expectations immediately, don’t expect a good movie at all, and don’t expect anything beyond TV Movie quality.
The movie is going to suck.
I want to believe Hollywood won’t screw this up but that requires far too much optimism than I possess.
Unless you were born yesterday, you should already be aware, that this will be complete s***.

Excellent that its not done in USA, otherwise the main “hero” would of been changed to half black, quarter Asian, quarter Mexican woman with short purple hair and all the evil guys, white man.
Slavs dont believe in fourth wave feminism and thats excellent.
