Clash of Clans could be coming to the big screen, as Supercell is hiring for film and TV

Could Supercell's blockbuster mobile games like Clash of Clans soon be hitting the silver screen? It's a possibility that's gaining traction, especially since the Finnish gaming giant is actively seeking a senior film and TV development executive. This move echoes the successful path taken by fellow Finnish developer Rovio, which brought their beloved Angry Birds to cinemas back in 2016.

While it's too early to confirm any immediate plans for a movie, the job listing hints at a broader strategy. The new executive's role will focus on crafting a comprehensive approach to live-action and animated films, as well as exploring theatrical and streaming distribution options. This suggests a long-term vision rather than an imminent project launch.

In the meantime, Supercell isn't sitting still. They've been pushing boundaries with their games, engaging in high-profile collaborations like the one with WWE. This trend of expanding their universe through crossovers could very well pave the way for a cinematic venture.

Although Clash of Clans has been around for a while, it's worth noting that the Angry Birds movie came out seven years after the game's debut. This indicates that even older IPs can still have significant cinematic potential. Additionally, Supercell's newer titles, such as Mo.co, could be perfect for a more family-friendly film adaptation.
