Idris Elba wants to talk about the existence of a Cyberpunk 2077 movie.

Work on Cyberpunk 2077 is probably finished by now. However, there may be some differences due to last week's surprise update 2.2 release, but The Witcher 4 was properly revealed for the first time at The Game Awards. But Night City won't be left behind forever, and Idris Elba, who joined the game as Solomon Reed in the Phantom Liberty expansion, is pushing for a film adaptation of the CD Projekt Red game.

Although the focus of Elba's interview with Screen Rant was his return to the big screen as Knuckles in Sonic 3, which opens in theaters this week, Elba talked excitedly about his work as Reed in Cyberpunk. When asked if he thought the game would be suitable for a live-action adaptation, Elba responded, “If any movie can be adapted into a live-action adaptation, I think it could be.” [Cyberpunk 2077]And I think [Keanu Reeves] If you put your character and mine together, it would be ‘whoa’. So let’s speak it into existence.”

Who knew gamers could be so creative?

Elba and Reeves are quickly becoming as popular as Jack Black when it comes to video game acting roles. They've both been in Cyberpunk, Knuckles and Shadow in Sonic 3, and Reeves recently starred in an episode of Secret Level's Armored Core. As for whether they will be part of a cyberpunk movie, on the one hand it would make a lot of sense if there were such a thing, but there are reasons why it could happen without it.

The Book of Solomon May Not Be Closed

First off, CDPR has already confirmed that there will be a live-action cyberpunk project. However, there are few details about it and it is still unclear whether it is a show or a movie. When Elba was asked about the potential film, he seemed unaware of it. This probably means that he hasn't been asked to reprise Reed's role in any of the projects yet to be announced.

This is a very minor spoiler for Phantom Liberty, but the story of Reed and Johnny Silverhand (Reeves' character) is effectively wrapped up by the end of the game. However, the live-action film may be a retelling of their story rather than taking place after the events of the games. The animated show Edgerunners was a huge success, so more Cyberpunk adaptations seem inevitable, with or without Elba and Reeves involved.

Phantom Liberty is the first and only major story expansion DLC for Cyberpunk 2077. Return to the game as V as he tries to protect the NUS President and meet Solomon Reed, voiced and acted by Hollywood star Idris Elba.
