Lorenzo di Bonaventura, the brains behind the forthcoming ‘Asteroids’ movie, has snapped up the rights for Space Invaders and the 1978 arcade classic is heading towards the big screen. I can exclusively reveal the first draft of the script:
<The movie opens in space, it is pitch black. An Alien appears on the left hand side of the screen>
Alien: Blip!
<The Alien moves slightly to the left>
Alien: Bloop!
<The Alien moves slightly to the left>
Alien: Blip!
<The Alien moves slightly to the left>
Alien: Bloop!
<The Alien fires>
Alien: Pew pew pew!
<Now at the right hand side of the screen, the Alien shuffles downwards slightly>
Alien: Blip!
<This sequence continues for 120 minutes until Shia Le Beouf appears>
Shia: This mystical, magical macguffin will save the day!
<He holds aloft the mystical, magical macguffin. It saves the day. The words ‘Game Over’ fade across the screen>
