Fans of The Sims can rejoice as EA has officially announced a live-action movie adaptation of the beloved life-simulation franchise. Margot Robbie is set to produce, while Kate Herron, known for directing the Disney Plus series Loki, will serve as the director.

In a blog post, EA hinted that the film will showcase iconic elements from the game, promising that “You will see a lot of the classic experiences that our players have in the games come to life.” Herron’s unique storytelling style is expected to translate well to the quirky world of The Sims.

While fans eagerly await more details, the news also reveals that EA is not currently developing Sims 5. Franchise manager Kate Gorman stated that instead of replacements, the focus will be on expanding the universe, allowing players to retain their beloved creations from The Sims 4.

As part of this expansion, EA is also gearing up for a more significant online experience with Project Rene, with more details to be unveiled soon. For now, Sims enthusiasts can look forward to both the upcoming movie and exciting developments in the franchise’s future!
