Deadline reports that Captain America star Anthony Mackie will star in and executive produce Sony Pictures Television and PlayStation Productions’ Twisted Metal live-action series.
“We’re thrilled to have Anthony Mackie on board. His ability to blend comedy, action and drama is perfect for the Twisted world we’re creating,” Asad Qizilbash, head of PlayStation Productions, said.
Mackie will be playing John Doe, an amnesiac character that first appeared in 2001’s Twisted Metal Black. The backstory seems to be much the same as the game, with John joining in the vehicular combat for an opportunity to remember who he is.
