In what is probably one of the most likely video game adaptations to be announced in a while is the adaptation of Tom Clancy's "Splinter Cell," which has been acquired by Paramount Pictures with Friday Night Lights and The Rundown helmer, Peter Berg, attached to direct.

Berg will also be penning the script along with the videogame's writer J.T. Petty and John J. McLaughlin.

Splinter Cell follows the adventures of government spy Sam Fisher as he's dispatched to infiltrate an international terrorist syndicate and stop a high-tech threat. Centering on Fisher, the focus follows the spy as he gathers intelligence and breaks into enemy headquarters while attempting to avoid attracting attention.

Paramount told Variety that the movie's aimed at combining the vidgame's blend of stealth action with a "dynamic, original" character.
