Just a few years after a film based on the beloved vehicular combat game franchise was cancelled, Sony Pictures Television and PlayStation Productions have begun development on a series adaptation of Twisted Metal, according to Variety.
Twisted Metal marks the second series to enter development for Sony Pictures TV and PlayStation Productions, with the other being HBO’s The Last of Us series that just landed Pedro Pascal (The Mandalorian) and Bella Ramsey (Game of Thrones) for the central roles.
“We love Twisted Metal in all its twisted insanity,” Glenn Adilman, executive vice president of comedy development for Sony Pictures Television, said in a statement.
“Twisted Metal is one of the most beloved franchises from PlayStation,” Asad Qizilbashm, head of PlayStation Productions, said in a statement.
