The film industry trade publication Variety announced today that Showtime plans to make a bio-pic movie based on Masters of Doom, the 2003 released non-fiction book on the formation of Doom developer id Software.
The executive producer and scriptwriter for the movie is Naren Shankar, who currently is an executive producer on CBS’s crime show CSI and has written scripts for shows like The Outer Limits and Farscape. Shankar stated in the Variety story that he first learned about about the David Kushner authored book by reading a review in an engineering journal. The book chronicled the formation of id Software and in particular focused on the developer’s two driving forces, its master programmer John Carmack and designer John Romero. There is no word yet on when Showtime plans to start production on the movie.
