Supercell Seeks Talent for Clash of Clans Movie and TV Projects

Could Clash of Clans, or another major Supercell property, be coming to the big screen? It's more likely than you might think. The Finnish mobile developer, renowned for their hit games, has recently initiated a search for a senior film and TV development executive. This move suggests they could be following in the footsteps of their fellow Finnish developer, Rovio, who successfully brought Angry Birds to the movies back in 2016.

While the job description does not indicate an immediate start on film projects, it focuses on developing a strategy for live-action and animated films, as well as theatrical and streaming distribution. In business terms, this role is more about planning and strategizing for the future rather than jumping straight into production. However, it's reasonable to assume that Supercell might already be sketching out preliminary plans should they decide to venture into film and/or animation.

Clash for the agesSupercell has been pushing boundaries with their game catalog, engaging in crossovers and collaborations, such as with WWE. This trend indicates that moving into film could be a logical next step for the developer.

Despite the time that has elapsed since Clash of Clans was first released, it's important to remember that the highly successful Angry Birds movie came out seven years after the original game. Clash of Clans still boasts a robust audience, and Supercell has newer IPs like Mo.co, which could be tailored for a more family-friendly cinematic release.

We'll have to wait and see how this unfolds. In the meantime, if you're looking for something to keep you entertained, why not explore our list of the top five new mobile games to try this week?
