Elliot Page Stars in Upcoming Beyond: Two Souls TV Series

Elliot Page, the original star of PlayStation and Quantic Dream's story-driven adventure game Beyond: Two Souls, is spearheading a television series adaptation through his production company, Pageboy Productions. According to Deadline, the rights have been secured from Quantic Dream, and the project is in its early stages of development. The aim is to maintain the game's signature non-linear storytelling, though specifics such as casting and release dates remain under wraps.

Page described filming Beyond: Two Souls as "one of the most challenging and fulfilling acting experiences" of his career. He expressed enthusiasm about the project, stating, "The story’s rich narrative and emotional depth offer us a fantastic foundation. We want to create a unique vision of the characters and their journeys that resonates with fans and newcomers."

Matt Jordan Smitt, head of development and production at Pageboy, shared how the team plans to "honor the game’s legacy while inviting fresh perspectives." He emphasized the importance of exploring themes of survival and the impact of split-second decisions, which are central to the narrative of Beyond: Two Souls.

Originally released for the PlayStation 3 in 2013, Beyond: Two Souls later became available on PlayStation 4 in 2015 and PC in 2019. Directed and written by Quantic Dream's David Cage, the game follows the life of Jodie Holmes, a young woman with psychic abilities connected to a spirit named Aiden. The game's non-linear structure and high-profile cast, including Page and Willem Dafoe, garnered significant attention.

David Cage expressed excitement about collaborating with Page on the TV adaptation, though the extent of his involvement remains unspecified. Cage praised Page's performance in the game and expressed confidence in Page's ability to bring the story to television with the same passion and impact.
