Take2 has announced that they've made a deal with Universal to make a movie based on its top selling game BioShock and the director that's supposed to helm the project is none other than Gore Verbinski. Indeed, the guy responsible for the Pirates of the Carribean trilogy.

Our ability to attract a major studio and unparalleled creative team speaks volumes about the strength of our BioShock franchise"
