Reports surfacing today are pointing towards the Metroid Prime movie being canned by the studio that acquired the rights some months ago.
The film was scheduled to be produced by the outfit behind American Pie and Final Destination, and Nintendo even asked users of its official website to decide whether it should cast Jessica Alba, Cameron Diaz, Jennifer Garner or Sarah Wynter as Samus.
According to one site, the license agreement to commence production has expired meaning that, for now at least, no shooting will commence.
