CD Projekt Red, the developer of Cyberpunk 2077, has the studio will be partnering with Anonymous Content to produce a live-action “project” set in the Cyberpunk 2077 universe. Anonymous Content is most known for producing works such as True Detective and Mr. Robot, but its catalog is overflowing with series such as Saint X, Shantaram, and The Last Days of Ptolemy Grey.
It is currently unknown what form this Cyberpunk sto🤪ry would take, but considering CD Projekt Red is working closely with Anonymous Content Studios’ head of television Garret Kemble, direc꧅tor of development Ryan Schwartz, and CCO David Levine, it would make sense to be a series, rather than a film on the big screen.
What we do know is that this will be a brand new story in the Cyberpunk universe, not an adaptation. The announcement by CD Projekt Red says “the new project is at an early development stage and has currently commenced searching for a screenwriter to tell a brand-new story set in the world of Cyberpunk 2077.” While Kemble, Schwartz, Levine, Bard Dorros, and Charlie Scully will be producing, “the project will be developed in close collaboration with the Cyberpunk 2077 creative team.”
If this series or film or whatever this project manifests as can be as well made as the anime adaptation, Cyberpunk: Edgerunners, it could be an exceptional experience. Because it’s a new story and not a direct adaptation, the project already sounds like a winner. Though♔ itཧ’d be nice if they were able to offer Keanu Reeves and Idris Elba a spot on the cast, even if they’re just walk-on cameos.
