Anthony Mackie is reportedly set to star as Jon Doe in the upcoming live-action TV adaptation of Sony’s brash vehicular combat series Twisted Metal.
A TV series based on Twisted Metal was initially touted backing 2019, but it wasn’t until last year that production appeared to shift up a gear, when first official details appeared online.
The show – an action-comedy take on the PlayStation series, scripted by Cobra Kai writer Michael Jonathan Smith – is said to tell the story of a motor-mouthed outsider who’s offered a chance at a better life, as long as he can deliver a mysterious package across a post-apocalyptic wasteland dominated by savage marauders driving vehicles of destruction.
