Dante's Inferno goes to Universal

The movie rights to Electronic Arts' unannounced videogame "Dante's Inferno" have been bought by Universal. As Michael Fleming and I reported last week, it was a hot contest between U, Paramount, New Regency and MGM. It's a seven figure purchase price, assuming the movie actually goes forward. It's the second EA videogame Universal has bought in the past few weeks, along with "Army of Two."

For full details on the final deal at Universal, check out Fleming's story in tomorrow's Daily Variety.

I am so happy to get some last chaos gold and the lastchaos gold is given by my close friend who tells me that the lastchaos money is the basis to enter into the game. Therefore, I should buy last chaos gold with the spare money and I gain some cheap lastchaos gold from other players.

I've always heard about Dante's Inferno and have been fascinated with the artwork associated with it, so now I'm going to have to read it before these adaptations arrive. I wonder who Paramount would tap to direct.
