The Boys' Jack Quaid has already shown off his BioShock credentials after revealing his dream acting role would be in an adaptation of the video game classic. Now, he's back with some more Rapture takes – including a pitch-perfect idea for a BioShock TV show.
"I want a BioShock TV show and I want it to take place in two different time periods," Quaid told IGN.
Quaid continued, "There're so many interesting characters in that game and in that universe that you only ever meet after the fall [of Rapture], when they've definitely fallen on hard times. I would love to jump back and forth between those two time periods – kind of in the way Fallout did – but maybe lean more into that time jump. Maybe in a Yellowjackets-y way."
Of course, Rapture-heads will know we do get a brief glimpse of Rapture in its heyday, both during the opening to BioShock 2 and in BioShock Infinite's Burial at Sea DLC. Still, Quaid clearly has a great blueprint for a story that charts the towering excess of the underwater paradise – and its inevitable downfall.
If he had his way, too, Quaid says he would play Sander Cohen, the disturbed artist who makes performance pieces and plaster figures out of his victims – even saying he will "learn" the piano for the role.
