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

Elliot Page's Pageboy Productions is adapting Quantic Dream's Beyond: Two Souls into a television series.

According to Deadline, Page's production company secured the rights from Quantic Dream to develop the video game into a TV show. The project, currently in early development, aims to retain the game's non-linear narrative structure. Further details, such as casting and release dates, remain undisclosed.

Page stated that filming the game was a profoundly impactful experience, and he believes the story's emotional depth provides a strong foundation for the adaptation. He aims to create a unique vision that resonates with both existing fans and new audiences.

Pageboy's head of development and production, Matt Jordan Smitt, emphasized their 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.

Originally released for PlayStation 3 in 2013, Beyond: Two Souls later appeared on PlayStation 4 (2015) and PC (2019). Directed and written by David Cage, the game follows Jodie Holmes, a young woman with psychic abilities and her connection to a spirit named Aiden. The game's non-linear storytelling and star-studded cast, including Page and Willem Dafoe, were notable aspects.

David Cage confirmed his collaboration with Page on the TV series, although the specifics of his involvement are yet to be revealed. He expressed his enthusiasm for the project and confidence in Page's ability to create a unique television adaptation.
