“Rollercoaster Tycoon” goes big screen
In a time where we can look forward to movies the likes of Monopoly and Candy Land, thanks to a deal between Hasbro and Universal, it looks as if Sony Pictures Animation wants in on the good times. Harald Zwart, who helmed the new remake of The Karate Kid, which is due out next month, will produce and may also opt to direct the project. “Rollercoaster Tycoon” is a very popular Atari computer game franchise where players build and then manage a theme park using their own creativity and business savvy to become the ultimate mogul.
