On Thursday, Paramount Pictures unveiled a sizzle reel for its live-action adaptation of the popular video game franchise Call of Duty, confirming a release date of June 30, 2028. The announcement took place during the studio’s presentation at CinemaCon in Las Vegas.

Kostich emphasized the importance of collaborating with the right partners by stating, “We were only interested in making this film with the right leadership, someone who cares about the IP as much as we do, and in David Ellison we found that partnership.”
Berg expressed his commitment to authenticity, noting his deep connection to the special operations community. He aims to depict this world truthfully while incorporating a grand scale into the film.

Launched in 2003, it has dominated sales in the U.S. for 16 consecutive years, selling over 500 million copies worldwide and reaching hundreds of millions of players.
