YouTuber Seán "JackSepticEye" McLoughlin has published a video in which he addresses the newly announced Bloodborne animated movie, and in it he talks about his love for the game, his role on the movie adaptation, and his thoughts on taking on such an integral responsibility.

First, a quick ICYMI: Late last night at Sony's CinemaCon panel, the company revealed that an R-rated animated movie adaptation of FromSoftware's beloved action-RPG is in the works, and that it'll be "very true" to the game. All of this came as a surprise to attendees as well as off-the-clock entertainment reporters, but perhaps the biggest surprise was the reveal that JackSepticEye is involved as producer. Considering the YouTuber is a known FromSoftware and Bloodborne superfan who's been involved in the film industry for years, it's not as surprising as, say, if Justin Bieber was involved, but it definitely raised some eyebrows.
