The BioShock movie is still in the works, but scheduling conflicts mean it likely can’t come out before 2027, maybe even later

The screen adaptation of BioShock is in progress at Netflix, but the release date is delayed due to director Francis Lawrence's busy schedule. Producer Roy Lee indicated that the project has faced delays as the script is undergoing further refinement. Lawrence is currently focused on the next Hunger Games film, which means BioShock will remain on hold until that project is completed. The film will be based on the original BioShock game, potentially allowing for a more thoughtful interpretation of Rapture.
