The Last of Us - HBO TV SeriesWhat is likely to be the next show for PlayStation Productions is yet another Naughty Dog-inspired adaptation. HBO is adapting The Last of Us with Chornobyl's Craig Mazin and The Last of Us co-creator Neil Druckmann at the helm of the production with D2R Items.
It's the character of Mandalorian Pedro Pascal will play Joel Miller and Game of Thrones actor Bella Ramsey will portray Ellie Williams, two roles with a lot of baggage both due to their emotional arcs as well as how their characters are to fans.
The show is expected to follow the story of the games fairly closely, however it will contain new features that include flashbacks , and characters that were mentioned , but were not featured within the video games. The show hasn't been given a specific release date yet, but is expected to launch sometime in 2023.
This show could be filming, but is likely to wrap photography at the moment.Twisted Metal will also be coming to the small screen and is a game-based series that has been off the air since 2012. Peacock will air a re-imagining of the game in an hour-long comedy that features actors like Anthony Mackie, Thomas Haden Church, Neve Campbell, and many others, so it will be a star-studded show.
On paper, the concept is intriguing, but it will likely be a tall order to achieve given the stylized nature and sheer size of Twisted Metal games. Production is currently in the process of being filmed or near to entering production. The film is also not set with a firm time frame for release, but is scheduled to release on Peacock at some point in 2023.Following the massive successes of Ghost of Tsushima in 2020, Sony quickly moved to greenlight a film adaptation of the already very cinematic game.
The film will be directed with director Chad Stahelski, the director of the John Wick series, so it's likely that the film will include some stunning action scenes. The movie is currently being scripted by Takashi Doscher, who is responsible for some indie films. However, it's unclear at present what extent it will follow the game. Given the film is still being drafted, there's no release date or casting information currently available.
God of War is making its way to the small screen with the help of an Amazon TV series. The year before, there was a rumor the possibility that Sony as well as Amazon were discussing ways to bring Kratos' story to life however nothing was confirmed. In the last week, Sony confirmed that God of War could be adapted for the streaming services of Amazon.
However, it appears likely in the very early stages. No director, writer, or even a cast member has been entrusted to the project, but Dave Bautista suggested that he's willing to the role of Kratos, if only to prove some naysayers wrong.Another show which was announced in the last week is an adaption of"The Horizon" Horizon series.
Horizon is the one that is most likely not to follow the gamesbecause Horizon is a rich and expansive world with other special characters beyond Alloy. God of War and Ghost of Tsushima's titles are both based on an individual character, thus they're bound by the protagonists of their respective games, but Horizon has the ability to diversify a bit. Right now, the only thing we are aware of is that it's currently in the process of being made available by Netflix.
There's no information on a release date, cast, or story.There are numerous reports that contradict what the project is actually about however Gran Turismo is getting some kind of adaptation with Diablo 2 Resurrected Items. According to reports, Sony is eyeing District 9 Director Neill Blomkamp to helm a Gran Turismo film, but it's unclear what the story would be. There were also reports that Sony announced that a Gran Turismo show was in development, however it's possible the information was inaccurate and Sony stated that it was a film and only a film. Regardless, something is happening and it's making fans confused.
