Mirror’s Edge To Be Adapted As TV Series

[Megalith]

Live action? Animation? I have no idea, but you can look forward to more of the franchise beyond the gaming box.

“We clearly see Mirror’s Edge as a franchise for the global TV audience,” said Sharon Hall, President of Endemol Shine Studios. “It has a strong female protagonist, a wildly rabid fan base and a worldwide brand that Electronic Arts and EA DICE have done an amazing job establishing.” Mirror’s Edge was well received when introduced in 2007. The game property is being rebooted with the upcoming Mirror’s Edge Catalyst, which will be released on June 7.

Would have succeeded in 2007, but just about everyone knows that parkour is a dangerous and silly hobby now, and the fad is over.

And no white girl.....I want that face!

Rinko Kikuchi from Pacific Rim could possibly pull it off (as she likes to )

No no this could be good for weeding out the stupid people to make it even more popular,

5:55 is the hardest to watch.

So this is why they tried to give Faith a personality in Mirror's Edge Catalyst. You can't make much of a TV series about a self-insert protagonist.

P.S. Wouldn't the most likely actress to portray Faith be Faye Kingslee? She is the voice of Faith in the new game and looks at least generally like Faith. If it's been in the works for a while this might even be why they changed voice actresses.
