Netflix says it's in talks with Ryan Reynolds,who has worked on a couple of other flicks for the company,to produce and star as Dirk the Daring. As in the game,the knight will go on a quest to save Princess Daphne from the aforementioned dragon. Daniel and Kevin Hageman -- who count The Lego Movie,Scary Stories to Tell in the Dark and an upcoming animated Star Trek series among their credits -- are writing the script.

There have been other attempts to make a Dragon's Lair movie,but now Netflix has the rights,it might finally happen. We all know Hollywood doesn't exactly have a stellar track record of turning games into excellent movies. However,Dragon's Lair has a simple,classic story that could translate well to film.
