Unfortunately it appears that the previously announced The Legend of Spyro 3D movie has been cancelled.

Aura24 recently got in contact with one of the writers and got this response:

Quote: Daniel Altiere
So sorry for the let down but we're as disappointed as you are. I'm afraid we're just the writers -- no more than hired hands. We didn't even know the project was cancelled until months after they pulled the plug.

Did you consider writing the gaming company? They're the ones who made the decision to go in a different direction. And if we knew what that direction was we'd share it with you. Again sorry for the disappointment. Wish we had more encouraging news for you.


With no news since May 2008, it was only to be expected. I've readded the full synopsis of the proposed movie back to the The Legend of Spyro 3D page in case you are interested in what might have been.

Wouldn't it be awesome if they released the footage of the film for the 3DS?

I'd love to see it released on there. Especially since I plan to get one on launch. Even if it weren't optimized for 3D, I'd literally cry from happiness.

More information? Don't you mean about Spyro's Kingdom? Unless you mean telling us about the unfinished parts of the movie.

It's just my personal opinion, but I think they make poor games. They reuse engines in a lot of their games now.

Case in point: How To Train Your Dragon on console. Apart from the characters and storyline, it was almost exactly like DoTD. It even had the same gem model. smilie

I've got the 360 version. I heard the PS3 version has slightly better graphics but it hasn't got any trophies. If I do get a copy of it it'll only be for my collection. smilie

This should cheer some of us up:

If you've ever played DOOM, then saw the film of it, you can imagine how bad this would be.

The better the game, the worse the film adaptation of it will be smilie

The "different direction" thing just hit me. They canceled a movie that showed promise to do something else? It's either going to be great or blow up in their face. For the sake of the Spyro franchise, I hope it's great. If it's a failure, why would the current franchise owner want to keep trying? And who would want to buy a failing franchise?

I feel I should start looking for a franchise to take Spyro's place...



I found some tome to get on and found this old quote,and I would like to say that I would buy the Spyro franchise, I would bring it back up to speed and make it better than ever, making the prvious owners want it back, but I would just rub it in their face and continue making the dragon we all know and love the worlds most famous and favorite game siries ever!

All if I realy had the money, I realy would buy the Spyro franchise, if it where for sell, first stop the horrid look they gave him and make a new story line that continued with Cynder, latter adding the older characters, besides hunter, he is already in there. anyway I need to go, again with the good-byes smilie

I don't know how I feel about it. If I'd known what the film might have been like then I might have known. It had a chance to be good, but it could also have been bad.

I still vote for it coming out on 3DS Netflix Streaming!

I'm only relieved because they would have chosen Elijah Woods to do the voice of Spyro and I like the old spyro voice and I don't like Sparx talking i preferred him as just a health indicator and I'm assuming the would of made him a vocal sidekick >..<

With the popularity of Skylanders they could probably make a new movie based off that
