Today, LA Weekly blogger Nikki Finke commented on the likelihood of a movie based around the Grand Theft Auto games. She reports that Fox Atomic owns the rights to Grand Theft Auto, a 1977 movie by Ron Howard (who would later direct Cocoon, Cinderella Man and A Beautiful Mind). Because of a legal agreement between Fox and Take-Two, the former can't make a game version of their movie and the latter cannot make a movie version of their game. Despite the continued popularity (and notoriety) of the Grand Theft Auto name, Fox has shown no inclination to make a movie sequel to the Roger Corman film.
"Yes, Fox owns the Corman movie," said an insider to Finke. "Yes, it has been one of 400 development projects for several years. But they are nowhere on the script. It has certainly not been a front-burner project."
