Announced by the Dead Island official facebook page, details of the movie are slowly leaking. The Sean Daniel Company from other films such as The Mummy, Tombstone, Dazed and Confused has been tasked with producing the Dead Island movie.

Lionsgate President Joe Drake said in a statement,

This is exactly the type of property we’re looking to adapt at Lionsgate – it’s sophisticated, edgy, and a true elevation of a genre that we know and love. It also has built in brand recognition around the world, and franchise potential.
