Hazelight Studios’ smash hit Split Fiction is reportedly getting a film adaptation starring Euphoria’s Sydney Sweeney with Wicked director Jon M. Chu at the helm.

That’s according to Variety, which reports that the film is being written by Deadpool & Wolverine screenwriters Rhett Reese and Paul Wernick.

It suggests that the film will be produced by Mike Goldberg and Dmitri M. Johnson’s Story Kitchen, and Chu’s Electronic Somewhere.

Sources told the publication it’s unclear whether Sweeney will portray Zoe Foster or Mio Hudson in the film. Sweeney is also reportedly attached as an executive producer.

Variety previously reported that a bidding war was underway for a Split Fiction adaptation last month.

Split Fiction launched on March 6, 2025, to immediate success. The co-op multiplayer follows Zoe and Mio, two writers trapped within a simulation of the worlds they’ve created.

The game topped one million units in 48 hours followed by two million sales in one week.

It proceeded to break three Guinness World Records, becoming the most played local co-op game on Steam, most sold local co-op game within 48 hours, and most sold local co-op game within one week of release.
