Rebellion has created theSniper Eliteseries of video games. It has also developed games for theAlien vs. Predatorseries as well asRogue Trooperand Judge Dredd.
They purchased the2000 ADfranchise in 2000. The founders of Rebellion, Chris and Jason Kingsley, were also producers on 2012’sDreddfilm. They were inspired to get the new space because they needed to pursue projects related to film and television in the future. Jason Kingsley said the following:
“We’ve got a huge library of good stories, and we’ll do original stuff as well. We make computer games. VFX is an area we are looking at as well. There is a whole bunch of interesting stuff, but you do need the craft skills and you need facilities…and it is hard to find them. We were looking and couldn’t find anywhere to shoot the stuff we have ambitions to do.”
Chris Kingsley added:
“We’re seeing more big players wanting to get in on the action. This is very exciting for the domestic and global film industries, but it’s also meant that our infrastructure is under increasing pressure.”
