The classic 1980s arcade game Space Invaders is getting a bigscreen adaptation with producers Lorenzo di Bonaventura and Odd Lot Entertainment's Gigi Pritzker, who are currently on the hunt for a writer.

From Taito and Midway, the arcade game is ranked as the top arcade game of all time by Guinness World Records.

The video game does not have a built-in mythology, so the filmmakers will have to create a captivating universe.

No production date has been set.
