Adaptasi Netflix Persona Dilaporkan Sedang Dikerjakan

Atlus's globally beloved Persona series is no stranger to mixed media: numerous games in the series have been adapted into anime, manga, novels and more. But, if a recent report is correct, the Persona franchise may find itself expanding to many more screens across the globe.

Variety reports that, according to various sources, Netflix has inked a deal to adapt Persona into some form to be broadcast on its streaming platform. Christopher Monfette will serve as writer, producer, and showrunner, while Shawn Levy and Robert Atwood will be executive producers through their company 21 Laps Inc. Story Kitchen, a production company famous for helping to adapt video game IPs to other media forms, will also be involved--as will its executives Dmitri M. Johnson, Michael Lawrence Goldberg, and Timothy I. Stevenson. Toru Nakahara from Sega will also serve in a production role.

As the deal has not been publicly announced, details are sparse--including which (if any) specific games would be adapted. The reported involvement of Story Kitchen is also interesting, as it helped bring the wildly successful Sonic the Hedgehog film adaptations to theaters, and is also currently helping to produce other Sega adaptations like Streets of Rage and Shinobi.

Persona's already had a big 2026 so far with the announcement of Persona 6 and 30th-anniversary festivities, so a big announcement like a Netflix partnership to cap it all all of is very plausible. Here's hoping that something will result that satisfies series fans and newcomers alike.
