Originally released for PlayStation 3 in 2013, Beyond: Two Souls later arrived on PlayStation 4 (2015) and PC (2019). Directed and written by Quantic Dream's David Cage, the game centers on Jodie Holmes, a young woman with psychic abilities who interacts with a spirit named Aiden. Beyond its non-linear storyline, the game is renowned for its star-studded cast, including Page and Willem Dafoe.
Cage confirmed his collaboration with Page on the TV series, although the specifics of his involvement remain unannounced. He expressed his excitement about the collaboration, praising Page's performance and his belief in Page's ability to translate the story's emotional core to a new medium.
