Sony's PlayStation Productions continue developing the 'demolition derby' video game "Twisted Metal" as a live-action "Mad Max"-type TV series starring Anthony Mackie ("The Falcon and the Winter Soldier") as 'John Doe', for streaming on Peacock:
"...'John Doe' (Mackie) is a man that has no memories of his past and is seeking a better life. As such, he accepts a dangerous mission to deliver a package across a wasteland that's filled with wild characters...
"...including killer clown 'Sweet Tooth', plus the masked 'Dollface'.
"Twisted
Metal", debuting in 1995, is a series of vehicular combat video games
published by Sony Computer Entertainment, appearing on PlayStation
consoles, including PlayStation 2, PlayStation Portable and PlayStation
3.
"...the
demolition derby permits the use of ballistic projectiles, machine
guns, mines and other types of weapons up to and including
satellite-based and nuclear weapons. Players
choose a vehicle and an arena to engage in battle with opposing
drivers. A variety of weapons and upgrades are obtainable by pick-ups
scattered throughout the stage. The last driver alive is the winner..."
