Endemol Shine Studios
has picked up the rights to bring the vertigo-inducing,
visceral, and exhilarating Mirror's Edge video game to the small screen.
Set in a dystopian
future of apparent bliss and zero crime, Mirror's Edge puts us in the shoes of Faith Connors. This unique heroine is a skilled runner
(parkour) and warrior who uses her skills to transport sensitive information away
from the government's totalitarian eye. When her sister is framed for a murder
she didn't commit, Faith tries to clear her name but ends up being drawn into a
conspiracy involving the ruling Conglomerate that could bring down society itself.
"We
clearly see Mirror’s Edge as a franchise for the global TV
audience," Sharon Hall, President of Endemol Shine Studios,
tells Deadline. "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."
Developed by EA DICE
and published by Electronic Arts, Mirror's Edge was first introduced to gamers in
2007, and will be rebooted this June 7 with an origin story called Mirror's
Edge Catalyst.
