“This new position will work with the Destiny Universe Leadership team to create strategy and execute the operations for expansion of Destiny into new media, including TV, films, books, comics, and audio formats,” said VanHuss on his post. “Destiny has a universe worth of stories waiting to be told, and I look forward to connecting best-in-class partners to our amazing creative team to bring them to life for current and new fans.”
VanHuss went on to praise the work Bungie has done on the Destiny story, saying the property has “a universe worth of stories to be told.”
Destiny began in 2014, when developer Bungie first released the online FPS. Since then, the game has gone through a ton of changes, as well as spawned a sequel, Destiny 2, which released in 2017. As of now Destiny 2 has received seven expansions, with its latest, Lightfall, released in February.
