  "account": "Barry Sloane, who plays Captain Price in video games, has expressed his desire to star in the upcoming Call of Duty movie. The film, directed by Peter Berg and written by Taylor Sheridan, is believed to be set in the Modern Warfare universe, though its specific plot remains a mystery. Sloane confidently asserts that no one else is as well-suited for the role as he is.\n\nSloane has received support from fans who want him to play Captain Price in the movie. However, the studio typically names a few actors for a role like this and then goes through the casting process. Despite this, Sloane believes he would be an asset to the production if given the chance.\n\nThe movie's connection to the games is uncertain. If it's a direct adaptation, the absence of characters like Captain Price due to the game's storyline might pose a challenge. If it's a separate sequel, the film could feature all-new characters or focus on surviving ones like Ghost and Korean characters from the game. The movie is scheduled for release in 2028, so more casting news is expected next year.",
