Rumors have cropped up now and again that a Twisted Metal TV series was being considered at PlayStation, but now it looks to be be official. Coming from Sony Pictures Television and PlayStation Productions, the live action Twisted Metal TV series is being written by Deadpool and Zombieland writers Rhett Reese and Paul Wernick. The series will take a dark action comedy approach as an original adaptation of the classic PlayStation car combat franchise.
Variety describes the premise as following a ?motor-mouthed outsider? who must deliver a package across a post-apocalyptic wasteland in order to have a shot at a better life. ?With the help of a trigger-happy car thief, he?ll face savage marauders driving vehicles of destruction and other dangers of the open road, including a deranged clown named who drives an all too familiar ice cream truck.? Of course that clown is Sweet Tooth himself, though the premise makes no mention of Calypso granting twisted wishes or the deadly destruction derby being a grand competition, so it will be interesting to see how many liberties the TV series takes with this new take on the popular franchise.
