Reliance BIG Entertainment and Brad Pitt's Plan B production company are developing a film version of the upcoming video game "Dark Void" as a potential starring vehicle for Pitt, reports Risky Business.

The film will be based on Capcom's upcoming third-person shooter, which centers on a a cargo pilot named Will who, after crashing in the Bermuda Triangle, ends up in a parallel universe where a band of humans must fight an alien threat they had long been thought extinct. Will and the other humans are outmanned but have a number of weapons and powers to help them beat back the alien incursion.

The game will be released for PlayStation 3, Xbox 360 and PC on January 19.

"As a game, 'Dark Void 'was developed with a wide-screen mentality – a world full of adventure presented in cinematic scope and scale," Capcom senior vp of licensing Germaine Gioia said.

You can visit the game's official website for more info.

Preview of the game, pretty nifty way to bring The Rocketeer back.

I think this could be a cool role for Brad Pitt. I always thought he'd do well as a pulp hero-esque adventurer (which is the vibe im getting from it) and superimposing that character to a future world is cool.

I also read at Wikipedia that Nikola Tesla is a character, which is pretty sweet
