Zack Snyder - director of 300 and the forthcoming Watchmen - has signed a deal to develop three original games for Electronic Arts, according to Variety.
Although the types of games he will be developing have not been exposed yet, the deal states that the games may be converted into films by Snyder's Cruel and Unusual Films Production Company.
An EA Games suit told the trade mag: "Zack Snyder has a fresh and bold creative style that resonates with our core audience."
Snyder is not the first big Hollywood player to dabble in videogames of course, with the likes of Peter Jackson, Steven Spielberg – who also has a deal with EA - and John Woo all producing gaming titles in recent years.
