replyHollywood must be really hard up for ideas, because that would just make a pathetic movie.

I haven't played it since Driver 1 but isn't it also really generic in terms of plot, setting and characters? Good enough as the background for a game, to give you a vague reason to drive around, but not the kind of thing that seems worth licencing for a movie.
Maybe things changed later in the series or I just can't remember the incredible story and characterisation in Drive 1 because it's so old.
