Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment has selected The Collective to develop video games based on the Dirty Harry film franchise, which are being produced in partnership with Clint Eastwood's Malpaso and The Tehama Companies. The companies will bring the legendary character "Dirty Harry" Callahan to life on next generation consoles.

Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment is working with The Collective on the development of the first installment of the game franchise with an original Dirty Harry storyline. Academy Award(R) winning director, producer and actor Clint Eastwood will consult on key creative and design aspects of the game while lending his voice and likeness to his renowned role of police detective Harry Callahan.

"Dirty Harry helped define a genre and introduced the world to a character who has since become a cultural icon, so bringing Clint Eastwood's authentic Dirty Harry character to this next generation of consoles provides exciting promise for game playing audiences everywhere," said Jason Hall, Senior Vice President of Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment. "Our work with The Collective is aimed at culminating in a game with an all-new story that allows players to experience the action and suspense of the legendary franchise firsthand."

"Working with Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment and Clint Eastwood to create a compelling, state-of-the-art game that brings Dirty Harry Callahan to life on next generation consoles is very exciting," said Doug Hare, co-founder and Vice President of Production for The Collective. "We are focused on creating genre defining story-telling gameplay, along with next generation graphics depicting action-packed sequences that are consistent with the renowned films."
