The Cyberpunk 2077 film will not retell the game's story. Michał Nowakowski, co-CEO of CD Projekt, said the company wants to develop a story set in the Cyberpunk universe rather than directly adapt the journey players experienced in the game.That distinction matters for anyone hoping to see V's story on the big screen. According to Nowakowski, the project will draw on the world of Cyberpunk without recreating the game's narrative. He did not reveal what story the film will tell or which characters might appear.The shift follows the end of CD Projekt's agreement with Anonymous Content. The partnership was tied to a live-action Cyberpunk project announced in 2023 that did not move forward. In the meantime, Nowakowski said, an opportunity arose to collaborate with Paramount Pictures, and the company decided to pursue the production in a different form.For now, the change in direction says more about what the film will not be than what audiences will see on screen. The co-CEO's comments rule out a scene-by-scene retelling of the game, but offer no details about the plot, cast or how the new story might connect to events in Cyberpunk 2077.No release date has been announced. What Nowakowski has confirmed is that CD Projekt intends to tell a story set in the world of Cyberpunk rather than turn the game's campaign into a film.
