Dante’s Inferno is being written by Dan Harris (X-Men 2). But it’s based on the video game, not the classic piece of literature the game is based on. 

Dan Harris has been set by Universal Pictures to write “Dante’s Inferno,” a live-action film based on the Electronic Arts vidgame in which players journey through the depths of hell.Strike Entertainment’s Marc Abraham and Eric Newman are producing with EA Entertainment. EA veep Patrick O’Brien and game creator Jonathan Knight are also involved in the development of the film.

Seems strange that they are even involving the video game company. Video game movies tend to fall into the bad-awful range, so hopefully this one can draw more from the literary history.
