I don’t see any reason to deny another interpretation or adaptation of Elden Ring, a movie for example. But I don’t think myself, or FromSoftware, have the knowledge or ability to produce something in a different medium. So that’s where a very strong partner would come into play. We’d have to build a lot of trust and agreement on whatever it is we’re trying to achieve, but there’s interest, for sure.” The FromSoftware president didn’t specify exactly what this “interest” entailed, though his example of a potential movie adaptation wouldn’t be far-fetched considering the current enthusiasm surrounding video game films and TV shows, many of which are set to light up our screens in the coming years.AdvertisementWelcome to DerryDeadline additionally reports Alixandra Fuchs, Kimberly Guerrero, Dorian Grey, Thomas Mitchell, BJ Harrison, Peter Outerbridge, Shane Marriott, Chad Rook, Joshua Odjick and Morningstar Angeline have joined the cast of the It prequel series, Welcome to Derry, in currently undisclosed roles.AdvertisementDexter: Original SinSarah Michelle Gellar has joined the cast of Dexter: Original Sin as Tanya Martin, “the CSI Chief at the Miami Metro Police Department and Dexter Morgan’s new boss.” [THR]AdvertisementTerminator ZeroAccording to Deadline, Rosario Dawson has joined the voice cast of Terminator.

Or maybe I don’t. I don’t know! Who knows?Monarch: Legacy of MonstersDuring another recent interview with Screen Rant, Dominique Tipper confirmed she’ll return as Apex Cybernetics executive Brenda Holland in the second season of Monarch: Legacy of Monsters. I don’t know if I’m allowed to say, actually. No - I am. Yes, I am, because Chris Black, the creator, mentioned it at the upfront, so yes, you will see more of Brenda Holland. I don’t really know what her storyline is entirely just yet, but I hope we get to see a lot more different sides of her ethics and her morality.
