Ratchet and Clank 2nd Movie Considered by Insomniac Games

Insomniac Games Eyes More Game-to-Screen Adaptations Following CEO's Retirement
Insomniac Games, renowned for the Ratchet & Clank franchise, has expressed strong interest in further expanding its presence in the film and television industry. This revelation comes from co-Studio Head Ryan Schneider in a recent interview with Variety, following the announcement of founder and CEO Ted Price's retirement.
"Reflecting on the Ratchet & Clank movie from years past, we had an early start on that process," Schneider stated. "Naturally, we're keen on pursuing similar ventures. We hold a particular fondness for Ratchet & Clank."
The 2016 Ratchet & Clank film received mixed critical reception. However, with Sony's acquisition of Insomniac in 2019 and Sony's demonstrated success in video game adaptations (notably The Last of Us), Insomniac is optimistic about its future in this arena.
Sony's Expanding Game Adaptation Portfolio
Insomniac's ambition aligns perfectly with Sony's proven track record of successfully translating video games into successful films and television series. Recent successes include the 2022 Uncharted film and the critically acclaimed 2023 The Last of Us series.
Further bolstering this commitment, Sony announced additional projects at CES 2025. This includes The Last of Us Season 2 (HBO, April 2025), an Until Dawn live-action film (April 2025), and a Ghost of Tsushima Legends anime series (Crunchyroll, 2027). A Helldivers feature film and a Horizon Zero Dawn live-action adaptation are also in development, though release dates remain unannounced.
Insomniac Founder Ted Price Retires After 30 Years
Concurrent with the interview, Insomniac founder and CEO Ted Price announced his retirement after a 30-year tenure. Price, instrumental in the creation of iconic franchises like Spyro the Dragon, Ratchet & Clank, and Marvel's Spider-Man, explained his decision: "I made this decision last year. After over 30 years leading Insomniac, it felt like the right time to step aside and allow others to guide the team forward."
Three veteran Insomniac employees—Ryan Schneider, Chad Dezern, and Jen Huang—assume leadership as co-Studio Heads. Price expressed confidence in their abilities, stating, "I firmly believe that to maintain our success, we need leaders deeply familiar with our methods, leaders who have contributed to our culture and processes, and who have earned the team's trust."
