Insomniac Games Eyes More Game-to-Screen Adaptations Following CEO's Retirement
Insomniac Games, renowned for its Ratchet & Clank franchise, has expressed keen interest in expanding its game-to-screen adaptations. This follows the recent retirement of founder and CEO Ted Price, as revealed in an interview with Variety.
Co-Studio Head Ryan Schneider highlighted the studio's experience with the 2016 Ratchet & Clank film, stating their continued enthusiasm for such projects, particularly regarding the beloved Ratchet & Clank universe. The 2016 film, while receiving mixed reviews, has paved the way for a potentially more successful future venture, bolstered by Insomniac's acquisition by Sony in 2019. Sony's proven track record with game adaptations, exemplified by the critically acclaimed "The Last of Us" series, instills confidence in Insomniac's future endeavors.
Sony's Expanding Game Adaptation Portfolio
Insomniac's ambition aligns perfectly with Sony's growing success in adapting its game properties. Recent successes include the 2022 "Uncharted" film and the 2023 "The Last of Us" series. Further expanding its cinematic universe, Sony announced several new projects at CES 2025:
- "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
Following a 30-year tenure, Ted Price, the visionary behind Insomniac's iconic franchises ("Spyro the Dragon," "Ratchet & Clank," and "Marvel's Spider-Man"), has retired. He expressed his decision as a natural progression, paving the way for a new generation of leadership.
Three long-time Insomniac veterans – Ryan Schneider, Chad Dezern, and Jen Huang – will now lead the studio as Co-Studio Heads. Price emphasized his confidence in their ability to continue Insomniac's legacy, highlighting their deep understanding of the studio's culture and processes.
