Gans previously directed the Silent Hill live-action film starring Radha Mitchell and Sean Bean that opened in 2006.
Film director Christophe Gans (Crying Freeman, 2006 Silent Hill) told the French cinema news website Allociné in an interview posted on January 31 that he is working on a Fatal Frame film and a new Silent Hill film.
The most recent game in the main Silent Hill series is Silent Hill: Downpour, which launched for PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 in March 2012.
Gans also said that the new Silent Hill film “will still be set in that ‘small American town’ atmosphere, where puritanism devastated everything.”
