The Sleeping Dogs movie has been cancelled

The Sleeping Dogs movie got announced in 2017 and was to be produced by Neal Moritz, one of the producers of the Fast & Furios franchise.

Alas, in a recent interview with Polygon, Moritz confirmed that this adaptation won't ever see the light of day.

"I spent a lot of time and did a lot of work with these producers, and I even invested some of my own money into obtaining the drafts and some of the rights."

"I waited for years. Years. And I really want to do it. I have all these visions in my head, and unfortunately… I don’t know, you know how Hollywood goes, right? I spent many, many years on it. It was an unfortunate thing."
