A Cyberpunk 2077 movie is not within the works, but when anybody decides to make one, it will probably relaxation straightforward realizing it is already obtained Idris Elba aboard.
Online game films and TV reveals are all the fad nowadays, with diversifications popping out of Hollywood left, proper, and centre, and Cyberpunk 2077 is not precisely a stranger to that both with its anime spin-off Edgerunners. What it hasn’t had, although, is a live-action adaptation, one thing I actually do not suppose we want in any capability, however there may be really a TV show version in the works so we’re getting it anyway.. Proper now, two of the sport’s stars, Keanu Reeves and Idris Elba, are gallivanting round doing press for, paradoxically, one other online game associated factor that they are each starring in, Sonic the Hedgehog 3. Elba lately spoke with Screen Rant, the place he was requested concerning the concept of doing a live-action Cyberpunk movie particularly, and he sounded fairly receptive to it.
“I feel if any movie may do a live-action rendition, it may very well be [Cyberpunk 2077], and I feel his character and my character collectively could be, ‘Whoa'”, Elba mentioned. “So, let’s communicate that into existence.” Clearly Elba and Reeves’ characters are fairly separate, on condition that the previous’s efficiency as Johnny Silverhand is usually restricted to the imaginative and prescient of participant character V, however I am positive it may very well be made to work in any case.
For the reason that announcement of the TV present there hasn’t actually been any particulars shared, so it may very well be that Elba will get his want, the one distinction being that it would not find yourself on the large display. We all know it is set inside the similar world, however whether or not any characters from the sport return for the present may be very a lot up within the air proper now. No less than we all know each Elba and Reeves would have the performing chops for it!
