Mass Effect TV show writer denies being told to rewrite it for 'non-gamers'

Mass Effect Wrex.

It was reported earlier this month that Amazon MGM Studios' head of global TV Peter Friedlander had requested script rewrites for the in-development Mass Effect TV series in order to make it "more appealing to non-gamers." Not very cool! But the claim may also not be entirely accurate, as writer and executive producer Daniel Casey said on Bluesky that it's news to him.

"So, I can’t talk about the specifics of what I'm writing (I've signed NDAs, etc)—but for whatever it’s worth, that article by the Ankler caught me off guard just as much as you," Casey wrote (via Kotaku). "I don't know where that 'non-gaming audiences' quote came from or who said it, but at no point has that been said to me."
