Speaking with the amusingly titled Bloody Disgusting, director Lee Wiseman has been chatting about his plans for an official movie based on the game franchise. Or, rather, he's been talking about three movies, based on Epic's IP.

Yes, Wiseman is hoping to make a trilogy of flicks based on the games, which could tie in with the previous two Gears' titles - and the distant prospect of a third.

"It's going to be much more [on the] science fiction side of it than the creature side of it. I've always been much more of a sci-fi action fan than a horror fan," Wiseman offered.

"The hope is that were wanting to do a three and really cover the bases on everything. Basically a harder edged Lord Of The Rings."

Film number one could arrive in 2010.
