Will there be a Watch Dogs movie?

I happen to love the first Watch Dogs game. Yes, just the first. The sequels haven't exactly filled me with joy.

As doesn't this piece of news. Reportedly there's a Watch Dogs movie in the works. 

But what makes it a Watch Dogs movie? The name? The main character?

Actress Sophie Wilde is "in talks" to star in this movie. Now I don't know about you, but I don't remember Aiden Pearce being a woman.

The rest of the cast is not yet known, as is not the release date.

I have heard nasty comments about the first Watch Dogs game. Something about it being too dark and depressive. But for me it was a very enjoyable game, which I played through more than once. 

And the online play was a suspenseful addition. You could never know if some other person was hacking in your game. Following you. Spooky.

If the main character is not Aiden Pearce, then it's not a Watch Dogs movie for me. Sorry not sorry.
