Elliot Page, the original star of PlayStation and Quantic Dream's story-driven adventure game *Beyond: Two Souls*, is set to bring the game to television through his production company, Pageboy Productions. According to Deadline, Pageboy has secured the rights from Quantic Dream to develop the game into a TV series. Currently in the early stages of development, the project aims to preserve the game's signature non-linear storytelling. While specifics like casting and release dates are yet to be announced, anticipation is high for this adaptation.
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 excitement about the project, saying, "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 vision, stating their intention 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 on the lives of the characters.
Originally launched for the PlayStation 3 in 2013, *Beyond: Two Souls* later became available on the PlayStation 4 and PC in 2015 and 2019, respectively. The game, directed and written by David Cage of Quantic Dream, follows the life of Jodie Holmes, a girl with psychic abilities who communicates with a spirit named Aiden. The narrative's non-linear structure and the inclusion of high-profile actors like Page and Willem Dafoe contributed to its acclaim.
David Cage, the game's creator, expressed his enthusiasm about working with Page again on the TV adaptation. "We are absolutely thrilled to collaborate again with Elliot Page on this project," Cage stated. "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."
