During CinemaCon 2026, Paramount Pictures announced that the upcoming live-action film adaptation of Call of Duty will release on June 30, 2028. Pete Berg (Hancock, Battleship) will direct the film, based on a script by Taylor Sheridan (Yellowstone, Sicario).
Currently, no details about the film’s story, or whether or not it’ll be adapting a specific game from either the Black Ops or Modern Warfare series, are known. However, Berg spoke about the film during the presentation, saying Sheridan and him are prioritizing authenticity among the group of elite soldiers “on a human level.” Further, he promises that the film will bring the series’ trademark large-scale action. This marks the second major video game to film adaptation from Paramount, with the first being the Sonic the Hedgehog series.
