If a Bioshock movie gets made, based on the Infinite storyline, they should cast Anna Kendrick to play Elizabeth

Zooey Deschanel.

Sadly a movie will never be in the works. They tried to adapt the original Bioshock into a movie, but that soon failed when it wasnt greenlit just cause it was to be R rated, or something like that. And given the fact most video game adaptions have been poorly made, Bioshock should never be adapted.

Theres a cinematic quality of its storytelling that makes you feel connected the characters and engaged in the story. Theres no need for a movie if a game like this already can achieve a what movie can do. It would be great to see yes, but ultimately Bioshock is a game built to engage players for its great storytelling and gameplay ideals that would seem too difficult to translate onto the big screen.

That would be awesome! Think she's a little too old now though :( Elizabeth is a pretty young character.

with the success of the recent game and now that they are making assassins creed film. I bet there is at least a better shot now for a bioshock film.

There are games that can be adapted, and others that shouldn't. GTA, Half Life and the Bioshock saga are part of the latter, simply because story-wise, the movie should be 3+ hours long

Alison Brie for Elizabeth is the best choice if they ever make a movie, Zooey would be great, but she's looking to old for the character now, while Brie still looks teen enough
