The Sims doesn't have a plot, or any kind of story really, beyond what the player makes up for it. It's a "life simulation" sandbox game in which "sims" live out their day-to-day lives, furnishing houses, establishing relationships, pursuing careers, maybe dying in swimming pools, all under the control of the player and with no particular narrative direction. And somehow, it's being made into a movie.
Word of The Sims flick comes by way of The Hollywood Reporter, and it's got some big names attached. It's being produced by LuckyChap, the production company co-founded by Margot Robbie, along with Vertigo Entertainment, and the script is being co-written by Kate Herron, who directed the first season of the Disney+ series Loki.
