One of the company’s newest hopefuls in the arena is Mass Effect. Amazon Studios is nearing a deal to develop a series based on the best-selling sci-fi video game franchise from Electronic Arts.

‘The Wheel Of Time’ Makes Strong Debut As Amazon Prime Video Doubles Down On Genre With ‘Mass Effect’ Adaptation & Prepares To Usher In ‘LOTR’ – Deadline

I know @NobleTeam360 is a big Mass Effect junkie. Thoughts?

Kinda have to agree, who do you cast as Shepard?

Yes Please.

Perfect timing too, The Expanse is ending, James S.A. Corey deserve to do something else for Amazon, The Expanse is one of my favourite Sci-Fi Shows of all time and I would trust them with Mass Effect.

Probably won't be them though cause it's too perfect and nothing ever goes that well At minimum, Drew Karpyshyn needs to be a consultant.

Still waiting for season 5 to release on blu-ray. I guess it comes after season 6 releases on Amazon Prime. So if Mass Effect is going to replace the Expanse, earliest I'll see it is 2024.

The writing is great in The Expanse. Season 4 felt a bit low budget though, does season 5 have more locations and people? At least it was a better continuation than Westworld Season 3, I still have to finish watching that. Lost interest halfway through. A shame, season 1 and 2 were amazing. Seems IMDB agrees scores falling off in Season 3. Looking at the Expanse scores are also going down after S3, S3 seems to be the peak to the series. Can't believe sci-fi channel cancelled it.

Mass Effect will need a much bigger budget.
