Metro 2033 (Movie)

Metro 2033 is an upcoming Russian movie that is set to release on 1st January, 2022.

Overview
First information about the movie was teased by Dmitry Glukhovsky, the author of the original book series, on his Twitter on 23th August 2019. The movie will be based on the first book of the series, which is also titled Metro 2033.

History
A film adaptation of Metro 2033 was already in production between 2016 and 2018. However, this movie was cancelled, as Glukhovsky was not satisfied with the decisions of script writer F. Scott Frazier, who wanted to "Americanise" the movie by setting it in Washington instead of Moscow and changing key aspects of several important factions - including the Dark Ones. Gluhkovsky decided this wouldn't work out, so production on a Metro movie was stopped and the rights were reverted to him.
