Ice Road Truckers the movie

The popular History Channel series, Ice Road Truckers is gearing up for a feature film directed by Max Payne‘s John Moore. 20th Century Fox is developing the film based off of the reality series about the men who drive 18-wheelers over a 350-mile highway made of ice, as they haul equipment and supplies to diamond miners working in the tundra of Canada’s Northwest Territories.

No writer has been attached yet, but the studio is excited according to Deadline. While a deal has been locked yet, Moore offers his opinion on this project: “It is very much a tough guy movie. Here’s a bunch of characters who tackle problems by getting in there and getting things done. We’ll turn it into a mission movie that harkens back to ‘Towering Inferno,’ ‘Jaws,’ or ‘The Guns of Navarone.’ You got a problem, go solve it.”

Oh, I forgot to mention that the film is being considered for 3D.
