Later that same year, reports surfaced claiming Amazon was “nearing a deal” for a Mass Effect TV series, as part of its ongoing push into sci-fi and fantasy storytelling.
Variety says a Mass Effect TV series is now officially in development at Amazon, with Fast & Furious 9 (AKA F9: The Fast Saga) scribe Daniel Casey on writing and executive producer duties.
It’s been a good few years since reports surfaced Amazon was looking to adapt Mass Effect for television, but finally – as N7 day rolls around once more – the show has been made official.
One person probably not excited about a Mass Effect TV series is ex-Bioware lead writer David Gaider, who previously said the idea of BioWare television adaptations made him “cringe”.
