Netflix hops aboard Sifu movie adaptation, assigns a screenwriter


Netflix is now involved with the film adaptation of video game Sifu, which seems to have caused some personnel shuffling.

We learned in December 2022 that a production company had signed on to turn Sloclap's excellent martial arts game Sifu into a film. The initial announcement saw Story Kitchen, which has since amassed a huge catalog of video game adaptations, securing a treatment of Sifu with John Wick creator Derek Kolstad attached as the writer. Nowlin's past credits include the screenplays for the Maze Runner adaptations and most recently he was a writer for Netflix's splashy Ryan Reynolds vehicle The Adam Project.
