Horizon Zero Dawn Movie Release Plans: 2026 Start with 2027 Debut

Sony has announced plans to develop a movie based on the Horizon series, with production set to begin in 2026 and release in 2027. The film is being produced in partnership with Columbia Pictures, following their successful collaborations on Uncharted and Gran Turismo films.

A working script for the Horizon Zero Dawn movie has already been drafted, and Sony is actively searching for a director to bring the project to life. The film aims to capture the essence of the Horizon series, expanding on its rich narrative and immersive world.

Asad Qizilbash, head of PlayStation Productions, emphasized Aloy's significance, noting her importance not only as a character in the Horizon franchise but also as a symbol for the PlayStation brand. The declaration does not provide details on casting or plot, leaving fans eager for more updates.

In response to Sony's copyright infringement claims against Tencent, the latter has filed a motion to dismiss. Meanwhile, Splash Damage, the studio behind Gears Tactics, has separated from Tencent with assistance from private investors.

The Horizon Zero Dawn movie is expected to be a major release for Sony, further solidifying their presence in the entertainment industry. Fans are eagerly anticipating the film's premiere and how it will expand on the existing storylines of the Horizon series.
