Dimension Films has acquired North American distribution rights to video game adaptation Dead or Alive by The Transporter director Corey Yuen, reports Variety.

Devon Aoki, Sarah Carter, Natassia Malthe, Matthew Marsden, Jaime Pressly, Eric Roberts and Holly Valance star in the adaptation. J.F. Lawton, Seth and Adam Gross and Granz Henman wrote the adaptation.

Impact Pictures' Paul W.S. Anderson and Jeremy Bolt produced the film, along with Constantin Film's Bernd Eichinger and Robert Kulzer and Mindfire Entertainment's Mark Altman.

Dimension, the genre arm of The Weinstein Co., will release Dead or Alive, shot in China, next fall.

The movie is based on Tecmo's bestselling game franchise. It centers on four female fighters in a competition to the death on an exotic island.
