It's been reported that Lin does not play games, and some people expressed concerns about him making the movie. However, Shams Jorjani, the CEO of Helldivers developer Arrowhead Studios, says there's no reason to worry Writing on Discord, Jorjani said he trusts Lin, saying the filmmaker did a "great job" with Star Trek Beyond. The executive also encouraged people to let the man cook. "Let Justin Lin work his magic," Jorjani said, as reported by GamesRadar. The Hollywood Reporter said it was in fact Lin's lack of experience with games that helped him get the job when pitching to production company Sony.
