Insomniac Games Eyes More Game-to-Screen Adaptations Following CEO's Retirement

Insomniac Games, renowned for the Ratchet & Clank franchise, has signaled its interest in expanding its game-to-screen adaptations. This revelation comes from co-Studio Head Ryan Schneider in a recent interview with Variety, following the announcement of founder and CEO Ted Price's retirement.

Schneider expressed enthusiasm for future film adaptations, specifically mentioning the previous Ratchet & Clank movie and the studio's ongoing fondness for the franchise. While the 2016 film received mixed reviews, Insomniac, now under the Sony umbrella since 2019, is optimistic about future projects, leveraging Sony's proven success in game adaptations, most notably The Last of Us.

Sony's Successful Track Record in Game Adaptations

Insomniac's ambition aligns perfectly with Sony's established success in bringing video games to the screen. Recent successes include the 2022 Uncharted film and the critically acclaimed The Last of Us TV series in 2023. Further bolstering this strategy, Sony's CES 2025 presentation showcased an ambitious lineup of upcoming adaptations:

• The Last of Us Season 2 (HBO, April 2025)
• Until Dawn live-action film (April 2025)
• Ghost of Tsushima Legends anime series (Crunchyroll, 2027)
• Helldivers feature film (release date unannounced)
• Horizon Zero Dawn live-action film (release date unannounced)

Insomniac's Leadership Transition

Ted Price's retirement after 30 years marks a significant shift for Insomniac. Price, instrumental in building the studio behind iconic franchises like Spyro the Dragon, Ratchet & Clank, and Marvel's Spider-Man, cited his decision as a natural progression after three decades at the helm.

The reins are now held by three long-time Insomniac veterans: Ryan Schneider, Chad Dezern, and Jen Huang, who will serve as co-Studio Heads. Price expressed confidence in this new leadership team, emphasizing their deep understanding of Insomniac's culture and processes.
