Amazon are currently working on a live-action adaptation of the first Life Is Strange game, which launched back in 2015. The show, like the action puzzle title, follows Max, “a photography student, who discovers she can rewind time while saving the life of her childhood best friend, Chloe. As she struggles to understand this new skill, the pair investigate the mysterious disappearance of a fellow student, uncovering a dark side to their town that will ultimately force them to make an impossible life or death choice that will impact them forever.”
Earlier this year it was revealed that stage actor Tatum Grace Hopkins will be playing Chloe Price while Maisy Stella (Nashville, My Old Ass) will star as Max Caulfield. Now Variety has confirmed who’ll be playing Max and Chloe’s parents as well as teacher Mark Jefferson and local drug dealer Frank Bowers.
All the names confirmed for the ‘Life Is Strange’ adaptation cast:
Chloe Price – Tatum Grace Hopkins
Max Caulfield – Maisy Stella
Mark Jefferson – Tom Cullen
Joyce Price – Leisha Hailey
David Madsen – Raúl Castillo
Frank Bowers – Owen Teague
Amazon Prime Video’s Life Is Strange adaptation will be written by Charlie Covell (Kaos, The End Of The F******g World), who will also serve as executive producer and showrunner. Square Enix, who owns the Life Is Strange IP, will produce the adaptation alongside Margot Robbie’s production company Lucky Chap and Story Kitchen, a company that “specialises in franchise farming”.
“We have always believed that Life Is Strange deserved to be more than just a game—it’s a cultural touchstone. Together, this thoughtfully assembled dream team is ready to share Life Is Strange with the world in an entirely new way,” said Story Kitchen in a statement.
However, original Life Is Stranger writer Christian Divine has criticised the adaptation. “The only people not involved are the creators.”
In other news, the 2026 edition of Call Of Duty will be the “definitive” sequel to Modern Warfare, developers Infinity Ward have revealed.
