Dragon's Lair is a great match for Ryan Reynolds. This will be the third film for him in collaboration with Netflix, following last year's 6 Underground and the film Red Notice that is currently in production with Gal Gadot and Dwayne Johnson. The game was one of the most popular games in the 80's. It released in 1983 and featured movie-styled animation mixed into the game. It has seen a popularity resurgence after making an appearance in the Netflix mega-hit show Stranger Things, where the kids pump quarters into it.

No other cast or production date was announced at this time.
