Gravity Rush debuted on the PlayStation Vita in 2012 where it became a cult hit. It would later receive a PS4 version and sequel. Developed by the now-defunct PlayStation Japan Studio, the games were received well critically but failed commercially.
The Gravity Rush film is said to be directed by Anna Mastro and written by Emily Jerome. Mastro is largely known for her work on music videos for artists such as Leona Lewis, Train, and The Pussycat Dolls.
Sony’s keynote also briefly mentioned the upcoming Legend of Zelda film, calling it “an amazing tale of adventure and discovery.” No further information on the film was provided.

It will be co-financed by Nintendo and Sony Pictures Entertainment and co-produced by Nintendo and Arad Productions.
Serving as producers are Shigeru Miyamoto, representative director and fellow of Nintendo, and veteran Hollywood producer Avi Arad, the former chief creative officer of Marvel Entertainment.
