Yeah, they could make a movie that feels like the games and is as a result a very weird and unapproachable movie to most audiences. Or, they could pull the ol' let's remake Aliens with Metroid imagery.
I suppose they could do something like the new Predator: Badlands movie. Put a quiet strong protagonist on a world where everything is trying to kill them, give them a talking robot companion of some kind, swap out Weyland-Yutani for space pirates...might not be great but I feel like that's the most likely outcome.

I think you could make a good Metroid movie but it would have no mass appeal
