Catan? Hollywood tries its luck on board games

https://www.marketplace.org/2018/01/...ck-board-games


Sony Pictures is in negotiations to acquire the rights to adapt Catan. Some fans like Williams wonder whether the game can survive the Hollywood treatment.

Catan's creator Klaus Teuber, wants to see it turned into a movie. He designed the game in the 1980s as a passion project while working full time as a dental technician, and he has painstakingly shepherded all Catan spin-offs. Teuber wants a movie or TV series to resonate with fans and answer their questions.

“I think they want to know where come the Cataners from? Where is Catan? How do Catan look like? I think this could be a frame for a full and rich story,” Teuber said.
