Gizmondo story could be coming to the big screen.

Writer-director Craig Zobel and producer Beau Flynn want to tell you the story behind "Gizmondo."

The Gizmondo was ultimately a failed handheld video game console, but it went on to produce one of the most fascinating stories in recent video game history.

From The Hollywood Reporter: "Flynn has optioned an October 2006 Wired article by Randall Sullivan titled "Gizmondo's Spectacular Crack-up" that Zobel brought to him. Zobel will write the screenplay to direct, and Flynn and Tripp Vinson of Contrafilm will produce.

The article focuses on Swedish con artist Bo Stefan Eriksson, who, among other stunts, wrecked a million-dollar Ferrari Enzo going 160 mph on Pacific Coast Highway above Malibu in February 2006."
