Ace Combat: Last News

Rebecca Rubin Film and Media Reporter“Jane the Virgin” actor Justin Baldoni is hoping to bring the exploits of Pac-Man to a movie theater near you.Baldoni’s production company Wayfarer Studios is backing a live-action film based on the popular arcade game, along with Bandai Namco Entertainment, the Japanese video game publisher that created Pac-Man, as well as Ace Combat, Galaga and Tekken.The ubiquitous video game, in which a starving Pac-Man chomps his way through a maze while attempting to evade deadly ghosts, has previously served as inspiration for television, with a 1980s animated TV series of the same name that ran on ABC and a 2013 cartooned show “Pac-Man and the Ghostly Adventures” that played on Disney XD in the United States. But until now, Pac-Man has only been a highlighter-yellow face on a pixilated screen.
