Anthony Mackie and Stephanie Beatriz play Twisted Metal in featurette for TV series adaptation

July 21, 2023 by Amie Cranswick

Coinciding with its world premiere at San Diego Comic-Con yesterday , a new featurette has arrived online for the action comedy series Twisted Metal which sees stars Anthony Mackie (John Doe), Stephanie Beatriz (Quiet), and showrunner Michael Jonathan Smith playing the 2001 video game Twisted Metal: Black while discussing working on the show; check it out below…

Twisted Metal, a half-hour live-action TV series based on the classic PlayStation game series, is a high-octane action comedy, based on an original take by Rhett Reese & Paul Wernick and written by Michael Jonathan Smith, about a motor-mouthed outsider offered a chance at a better life, but only if he can successfully deliver a mysterious package across a post-apocalyptic wasteland. With the help of a badass axe-wielding car thief, he’ll face savage marauders driving vehicles of destruction and other dangers of the open road, including a deranged clown who drives an all too familiar ice cream truck.

Twisted Metal premieres on Peacock on July 27th.
