After option deals with Universal Pictures and Columbia Pictures expired, id Software signed a deal with Warner Bros. with the stipulation that the movie will be greenlit within 12 months. Warner Bros. lost the rights, which were subsequently given back to Universal Pictures who started production in 2004.
In an interview with executive producer John Wells, he stated that a second film would be put into production if the first was a success at the box office. Ticket sales for the opening weekend totaled more than US$15.3 million, but promptly dropped to $4.2 million in its second weekend.
Plot
On Mars in the year 2046,
in the Union Aerospace Corporation (UAC)
Olduvai Research Facility, scientists are attacked and pulled into the darkness
by an unseen monster. Doctor Carmack (Robert Russell) transmits a warning about a
Level 5 security breach before the door behind him is torn open. He turns
around and sees a large humanoid creature through the gap.On Earth, a team of eight Marines - (Sarge, Reaper, Duke, Destroyer, The Kid, Portman, Goat and Mac) known as the RRTS Hellfighters (Rapid Response Tactical Squad) are preparing to go on leave. Their leave is cancelled when the squad leader, Sarge (Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson), receives new orders. Contact with Olduvai has been lost and the RRTS is being sent to investigate. The Mars station is quarantined and the 85 UAC employees on Mars are not allowed to return to Earth. As the men suit up, Sarge pulls aside John "Reaper" Grimm (Karl Urban) and asks him not to go because Olduvai is where Reaper's parents died and his sister is still on the station. Reaper suits up anyway, and their team is deployed to Mars via a teleportation device called the "Ark", located at Area 51. The Ark was discovered in 2026, and scientists have been studying it. The team meets an early victim of the Ark system, Pinky (Dexter Fletcher), who "went to one galaxy while his ass went to another" during an Ark teleportation event (his lower torso is now a two-wheeled engine resembling a Segway). They meet up with Dr. Samantha Grimm (Rosamund Pike), Reaper's sister. She briefs the RRTS that Doctor Carmacks division of the facility focused on genetic research has been quarantined off, with Carmack and five other scientists sealed inside.

Production
The film's producer, John Wells, admitted
in an interview that "many" video game movie adaptations had
"sucked." He revealed that the crew was able to get "a lot of
financial support from Universal" and that it wasn't "done on the
cheap." Wells also revealed that the Doom movie would have a sequence shot in a first-person
perspective because "Doom
without that would be a miscarriage of justice!"DOWNLOAD MOVIE NOW
