Capcom has expressed interest in adapting even more of its popular franchises to the silver screen, revealing that the publisher in talks with leading Hollywood film studios to expand their reache.

“We are in the process of working out contracts for several offers we received at the Cannes Film Festival last week and hope to make an announcement soon,” said Haruhiro Tsujimoto, President of Capcom.

“If realized, the projects will have a big impact on the game and movie industries… We want to do with games what Marvel did with comics.”

The publisher is currently busy working on a new CG film based on their survival horror franchise, Resident Evil: Degeneration, which is due for release some time in 2008.
