Fans Furious At Executives For Excluding Life Is Strange Creators!

Story Highlight
  • It was recently revealed that Life is Strange is being adapted into a TV series by Amazon MGM Studios.
  • The game’s writer, Christian Divine, now confirms that the series will not include the original creators of the IP.
  • The series is being written and directed by The End of the F***ing World creator Charlie Covell. 

Despite the latest Life is Strange game failing to live up to expectations, the original title and its sequel redefined the entire narrative games genre. Therefore, fans were extremely excited to learn that the franchise is being adapted into a TV show by Amazon MGM Studios.

However, this excitement has already started to fizzle out in the community after Life is Strange writer Chiristian Divine confirmed that the TV show will not include the original franchise creators. The news has caused uproar on social media.

Why it matters: Fans are quite upset with Amazon MGM Studios for greenlighting the Life is Strange series adaptation without including the original creators of the franchise.

The Life is Strange TV adaptation does not include the original creators.

Christian’s confirmation on Twitter is a sharp jab at the Amazon MGM Studios’s Life is Strange TV show announcement.

He clarifies that the only people not involved with it are the creators, who are arguably the most important to have a faithful and successful TV reimagining of the popular series. Therefore, fans are extremely furious with Amazon.

The show is being written and directed by The End of the F***ing World creator Charlie Covell, who is also regarded as a successful and promising creator in the industry. Meanwhile, Square Enix, Story Kitchen, and Lucky Chap are producing the series.

Life is Strange: Double Exposure
Life is Strange: Double Exposure, the latest game in the IP, failed to satisfy fans.

Amazon MGM Studios already boasts experience in adapting several game franchises, such as the upcoming Fallout Season 2 and the live-action Tomb Raider. 

As per the official description, the show follows Max, ‘a photography student, who discovers she can rewind time.’ It will follow Max figuring out her powers while trying to save the life of her childhood best friend, Chloe.

Do you think the Life is Strange series adaptation will turn out to be a faithful reimagining of the games, or will it divert too far from the source material? Let us know your thoughts in the comments below, or join the discussion on the Tech4Gamers forum.
