Multiple outlets report that Netflix is developing a live-action television adaptation of the Persona video game franchise, citing a Variety report. The project is described as a deal for Netflix and is expected to reach viewers through the streamer’s platform, though no official announcement from Netflix is cited publicly. Details remain limited, including which specific Persona entries, if any, the adaptation would draw from.
Reported production credits include Christopher Monfette serving as writer, producer, and showrunner, and executive producers Shawn Levy and Robert Atwood via their company 21 Laps Inc. Story Kitchen is also listed as a production company involved in the project, along with Story Kitchen executives Dmitri M. Johnson, Michael Lawrence Goldberg, and Timothy I. Stevenson. Sega’s Toru Nakahara is additionally reported to be involved in a production role.
While Persona already has a history of adaptations across other media such as anime and manga, these reports indicate a further expansion into live-action television. As the agreement has not been formally publicized, the scope and timeline of the series are not yet confirmed.
