It Takes Two to be adapted for film and television

Hazelight Studios is teaming up with dj2 Entertainment to bring It Takes Two to the big and small screens.

At the moment, no studio or TV channel is attached to the project, but some sources indicate that it is currently the subject of a bidding war between several groups. Pat Casey and Josh Miller, screenwriters of the feature film Sonic the Hedgehog and its sequel, are also involved in the movie and TV adaptation of It Takes Two.

“Creating the world and story of It Takes Two was a lot of fun for me and the development team,” said Joseph Fares, founder and creative director of Hazelight Studios. “Because it has a strong narrative with lots of crazy characters and equally crazy moments of co-action, the potential for a great movie or TV adaptation is huge.”Dimitri M. Johnson, CEO and Founder of dj2 Entertainment, added, “We are honored to be collaborating with Joseph and the amazing team at Hazelight Studios on a linear media adaptation of It Takes Two. Like the rest of the gaming world, we’ve fallen head over heels in love with Cody, May, Rose, Dr. Hakeem, and the imaginary fantasy universe created by Hazelight, and we can’t wait to bring these characters to life. and this world is on the big and small screen.”
