The Division movie adaptation has found a home in Netflix. Starring Jessica Chastain and Jake Gyllenhaal, the live-action adaptation of Ubisoft's live-action shooter will be available on the video streaming service when it releases.

Ubisoft previously announced that a movie adaptation of The Division would be forthcoming and announced director David Leitch (Deadpool 2) would be helming the movie earlier this year. Ubisoft announced the Netflix deal at today's E3 2019 press conference.

Ubisoft didn't show any images or teasers for The Division movie, but knowing that it has a director, stars, and publisher means that it's well on its way. We'll keep our eyes out for when the first trailer drops.

Other announcements at today's Ubisoft E3 2019 press conference includes the world premiere of Watch Dogs Legion. Check out our Ubisoft E3 2019 guide for more info.
