Revealed on social media by Ubisoft, the Watch Dogs movie has started filming. If you can’t remember a Watch Dogs movie ever being announced, that’s because said announcement happened back at Gamescom 2013. Before the first game in the series had even been released. Since that time, it has mostly been silent on its development. Until now.
The image of the social media post shows a clapperboard hiding the face of someone sitting at a computer. Though this is unlikely a shot from the film itself, as that person sitting at the computer also has a clapperboard. That clapperboard has three names on it. The franchise name of Watch Dogs, the name of the director, Mathieu Turi, and a third name, Daniele Massaccesi AIC.

Deadline revealed in June some news on the project, revealing the first casting for Watch Dogs. Tom Blyth, who starred in The Hunger Games: The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes. And Sophie Wilde, who starred in Talk to Me. The first draft of the script was handled by Christie LeBlanc, with Victoria Bata having overseen revisions. Ubisoft’s head of content, Margaret Boykin, serves as one of the producers, as do New Regency CEO Yariv Milchan and president of motion pictures and television Natalie Lehmann.
The world of Watch Dogs, first introduced in 2014 with the game of the same name, focuses upon a high-tech world where hacking to manipulate objects was easy for those in the know. Since that first game, two others have been released, with 2020’s Watch Dogs Legion taking the series beyond the US to create a near-future London.
