Dark Universe Being ‘Reconfigured’ By Universal After Setbacks
Universal's Dark Universe franchise is set to be 'reconfigured', according to a writer who has stepped away from one of its lead projects.
Invisible Man writer Ed Soloman revealed to Digital Spy that he won't be working on the movie any longer, citing differences in vision.
"I think Universal and I had a different idea of what the movie was gonna be", he explained. "We began thinking that our notions would meld, and I should've listened more closely to what they really were wanting."
Solomon further noted that Universal is now working to change the Dark Universe in the wake of setbacks:
Persona Developer Could Be Making ‘PS4 High-End Action Game’
Atlus fans, rejoice! It looks like the Japanese developer of Persona 5 is brewing something new for PS4.
Spotted by Gematsu, a job advert titled "2D Concept Design / Key Animation Talents! PS4 High-End Action Game" appeared, posted by a "long-standing consumer game maker famous for its unique goddess (megami) and demon RPGs."
After a lot of chin rubbing and thoughtful moustache twirling, the consensus is that it's Atlus. If you want more proof, Setagaya is listed as the location, which happens to be where Atlus' office is based.
Shortly after the story was picked up, that ad was removed, along with a second one for a UI designer.

The third Cloverfield film may not see a traditional theatrical release, but instead premiere on Netflix.
According to TheWrap, "an individual with knowledge of the project" claims Paramount is in negotiations with Netflix for the streaming service to take over rights to the J.J. Abrams-produced movie in most territories.
