Beyond: Two Souls TV Series on the Way from Star Elliot Page

Elliot Page, star of the original game, is bringing Quantic Dream's Beyond: Two Souls to the small screen. Page's Pageboy Productions has secured the rights to adapt the story-driven adventure into a television series. While still in early development, the project aims to retain the game's signature non-linear narrative. Further details regarding casting and release dates remain undisclosed.

Page described his experience filming the game as "one of the most challenging and fulfilling acting experiences" of his career, adding that the story's "rich narrative and emotional depth offer us a fantastic foundation." He expressed a desire to create a unique adaptation that resonates with both existing fans and new audiences.

Matt Jordan Smitt, Pageboy's head of development and production, emphasized the team's commitment to honoring the game's legacy while incorporating fresh perspectives. He highlighted the exploration of survival and the impact of crucial decisions as central themes in the adaptation.

Originally released for PlayStation 3 in 2013, Beyond: Two Souls later arrived on PlayStation 4 (2015) and PC (2019). Directed and written by David Cage, the game follows Jodie Holmes, a young woman with psychic abilities connected to a spirit named Aiden. Its non-linear storytelling and star-studded cast, including Page and Willem Dafoe, were key aspects of its success.

David Cage confirmed his collaboration with Page on the television series, though the specifics of his involvement are yet to be revealed. He expressed excitement about working with Page again, praising his performance in the game and confidence in his ability to bring a unique vision to the television adaptation. He noted the game's special place in the hearts of millions who connected with Jodie and Aiden's journey.

The Beyond: Two Souls TV series is still in its early stages, with a release date yet to be announced. For now, you can revisit IGN's original review of the game here and explore all our Quantic Dream game reviews here.
