Elliot Page, the star of the acclaimed PlayStation and Quantic Dream game *Beyond: Two Souls*, is set to bring the story-driven adventure to television through his production company, Pageboy Productions. According to Deadline, Pageboy has secured the rights from Quantic Dream to adapt the game into a TV series. The project is still in its early stages, but the team aims to preserve the game's unique non-linear narrative. Details such as casting and release dates are yet to be announced.
Reflecting on his experience, 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 insights into the team's approach, emphasizing their intent to "honor the game’s legacy while inviting fresh perspectives." He highlighted the importance of exploring themes of survival and the impact of split-second decisions on multiple lives.
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 David Cage of Quantic Dream, the game follows Jodie Holmes, a young woman with psychic abilities who interacts with a spirit named Aiden. The game's non-linear storytelling and the involvement of high-profile actors like Page and Willem Dafoe contributed to its acclaim.
David Cage expressed excitement about collaborating with Page on the TV adaptation, though the specifics of his involvement remain undisclosed. "We are absolutely thrilled to collaborate again with Elliot Page on this project," Cage remarked. "I was blown away by his acting performance in the game, and I couldn’t think of anyone else to tell this story with the same passion on another medium. *Beyond: Two Souls* is a very special game for millions of players around the world who were moved by the story of Jodie and Aiden, and their journey in life and beyond. I know that Elliot has all the talent and instinct to make it something really unique on TV."
