Today, a report has announced that Apple has begun early development on an Oregon Trail live-action movie. The late 1990s computer game would see players attempt to survive the Oregon Trail as settlers move west but ultimately die in some random way.

The film is expected to be an action-comedy, which means we could see many characters die in a multitude of ways, much like 2014’s A Million Ways to Die in the West. Will Speck and Josh Gordon are set to co-direct the film. The Lucas Bros. (Judas and the Black Messiah) and Max Reisman are set to pen the screenplay. Caroline Fraser will produce for HarperCollins Productions.
