Could we see Supercell's top properties like Clash of Clans on the big screen? It's more likely than you might think. The Finnish mobile gaming giant has begun the search for a senior film and TV development executive, hinting at a potential move into the world of movies, much like Rovio did with Angry Birds back in 2016.

While the job posting, as noted by PocketGamer.biz, isn't a direct green light to start production immediately, it does call for the development of a strategy for live-action and animated films, as well as handling theatrical and streaming distribution. In business terms, this suggests a more strategic, watch-and-wait approach. However, it's safe to assume that Supercell might already be sketching out preliminary plans should they decide to venture into film and animation.

Supercell has been pushing boundaries with their catalog, venturing into crossovers and collaborations, such as their tie-up with WWE. This move into film seems like a natural next step for the developer. Despite the time elapsed since Clash of Clans' initial release, it's worth remembering that the hugely successful Angry Birds movie hit theaters seven years after the game's debut. Clash of Clans still boasts a strong audience, and Supercell has newer IPs like Mo.co, which could be perfect for a more family-oriented film.

We'll have to wait and see how this unfolds. In the meantime, why not explore our list of the top five new mobile games to try this week?
