LaKeith Stanfield is set to star in and produce a feature adaptation of the hit neo-noir video game ‘El Paso, Elsewhere‘.
What is the Synopsis of ‘El Paso, Elsewhere’?
According to Deadline, the film’s synopsis follows James Savage (Stanfield), who while recovering from a toxic relationship, confronts both his inner demons and enigmatic ex-girlfriend, Janet, before she executes a world-ending ritual. James navigates her reality-bending universe of ethereal monsters while facing the truth of his own addictions and skewed sense of self-worth, learning that the only route to love is through healing.
Lorenzo di Bonaventura’s Di Bonaventura Pictures, known for the Transformers and G.I. Joe franchises, along with Colin Stark, will also produce.
Developed by Strange Scaffold and published for Windows, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X/S on September 26, 2023, ‘El Paso, Elsewhere’ is a supernatural neo-noir third-person shooter. Players hunt werewolves, fallen angels, and other damned creatures in a vivid slow-motion homage to action classics. They must fight their way through a reality-shifting motel, floor by bloody floor, and save the victims of Draculae, lord of the vampires. Ultimately, they must destroy the villain they once loved—even if it means sacrificing themselves.
Stanfield is best known for his roles in films like ‘Judas and the Black Messiah,’ ‘Knives Out,’ and ‘Selma.’ He’s also appeared in ‘The Harder They Fall,’ ‘Uncut Gems,’ ‘Sorry to Bother You,’ ‘Get Out,’ and others. Stanfield’s next project is Amazon MGM’s ‘Play Dirty’ with Mark Wahlberg. He’s also been seen on shows like ‘The Changeling’ and ‘Atlanta.’
No release date has been announced yet for ‘El Paso, Elsewhere.’
