From ComingSoon.net:
"Universal Pictures has set a July 1, 2011 for the Peter Berg-directed Battleship, a live-action adaptation of Hasbro's board game.
Variety says the deal is part of a two-picture pact Berg has made with the studio, where he'll follow Battleship with the Afghan war drama Lone Survivor.
The Battleship script was written by Jon Hoeber and Erich Hoeber. Production is scheduled to begin next spring.
Berg called the film 'a contemporary story of an international five-ship fleet engaged in a very dynamic, violent and intense battle.'
Other projects in development for Berg, including Dune and Hancock 2, will come later.
Other Hasbro adaptations in the works at Universal include Stretch Armstrong (April 11, 2011) with Steve Oedekerk, Clue with Gore Verbinski, Monopoly with Ridley Scott, Candy Land with Kevin Lima and Ouija with Michael Bay's Platinum Dunes."
I'm hoping he puts at least some humor in it, like The Rundown and Hancock.
