Matt Jordan Smitt, Pageboy's head of development and production, highlighted the team's commitment to honoring the game's legacy while incorporating fresh perspectives. He underscored the themes of survival and the impact of pivotal decisions as central to the narrative.
Originally released for PlayStation 3 in 2013, Beyond: Two Souls later appeared on PlayStation 4 (2015) and PC (2019). Directed and written by Quantic Dream's David Cage, the game follows Jodie Holmes, a young woman with psychic abilities and her connection to a spirit named Aiden. The game's non-linear storytelling and star-studded cast, including Page and Willem Dafoe, were notable aspects.
Cage confirmed his collaboration with Page on the TV series, although the specifics of his involvement remain unclear. He expressed excitement about working with Page again, praising his performance and confidence in his ability to translate the story to television. He also acknowledged the game's emotional impact on millions of players.
