20th Century Studios is adapting the Roblox game, 99 Nights in the Forest into a feature film.

Alec Kieft, Matthew Hufton, and Cameron Angland of Grandma’s Favourite Games, will serve as executive producers, with J.R. Young overseeing the project on behalf of the studio.

In the action-survival game, players must build a camp in a haunted forest to rescue four missing children while fending off a monstrous deer, its cultists, and other killer beasts.

“Growing up, Disney and 20th films were a huge part of our childhood, so collaborating with such legendary and enduring studios feels surreal,” Kieft, Hufton, and Angland stated. “We’re excited to explore the world of 99 Nights in the Forest on a broader stage and to create some scares in an entirely new medium.”

“The team at Grandma’s Favourite Games are exactly the kind of bold, imaginative creators we love working with at 20th Century Studios, with world building ideas that feel innately cinematic,” added David Greenbaum, president of Disney live action and 20th Century Studios. “99 Nights in the Forest has already connected with millions of players worldwide, and we’re excited to build on that foundation for audiences everywhere.”

Variety first reported on the adaptation.
