Brad Pitt and his Plan B production house have acquired the film rights to Capcom's upcoming video game "Dark Void," which will hit stores in North American and Europe in late January 2010.

The plan is to develop the game into a franchise, and Pitt may end up starring in the project as well. The game follows Will, a pilot who crash lands in the Bermuda Triangle following a routine mission.

Will wakes up to find himself in an alternate world resembling a primitive earth where aliens with superior technology are planning to take over civilization. He decides to stop them along with some humans.
