Paramount Pictures is poised to translate the neon world of Cyberpunk 2077 onto the silver screen, according to a fresh Deadline report.
Paramount, the Cyberpunk Vision
The studio is green‑lighting a live‑action film set in Night City, with Transformers producer Lorenzo di Bonaventura attached as the executive producer.
CD Projekt RED will be involved at every stage; co‑CEO Michał Nowakowski confirmed the partnership on X, emphasizing shared creative ambitions for the franchise.
Whether the narrative will follow V and Johnny Silverhand or chart a new course remains undisclosed, but the presence of CD Projekt RED is noted to preserve the series’ signature aesthetic.
CD Projekt RED Sees Dual Focus
While the Cyberpunk film moves into pre‑production, CD Projekt RED is finalizing The Witcher IV, scheduled for 2028, alongside the newly announced sequel Project Orion, the Cyberpunk 2077 follow‑up.
Other Paramount Movie Projects
Paralleling the cyberpunk venture, Paramount is set to co‑produce a live‑action Call of Duty film with Activision, targeted for June 30, 2028, and has co‑produced the upcoming Street Fighter movie with Legendary.
The studio’s recent merger with Warner Bros. Discovery and Skydance, closed on October 6, 2026, means the Cyberpunk film will fall under refreshed leadership.
Meanwhile, Cyberpunk Edgerunners 2 is slated for a Netflix release on October 20, 2026, ensuring fans have multiple high‑profile Night City experiences arriving this year.
With di Bonaventura’s Transformers legacy balancing fan expectations, the involvement of CD Projekt RED lends credibility that Night City’s electric glow will not be lost in transition.
