(Sony / Beyond: Two Souls) Ellen Page's character "Jodie" in the video game "Beyond: Two Souls" Here's the "shower scene" from 2013's "Beyond: Two Souls" as it appeared in the normal version game: It was in the informality of a Bet Tzedek board meeting that Abrams first broached the subject of Page's unexpected nudity in "Beyond: Two Souls," according to the emails. Page's lawyer, Jeffrey Abrams, serves on the board of Bet Tzedek, a Los Angeles-based legal group, alongside g eneral counsel of Sony Pictures Entertainment Leah Weil. By the time it got to SCEA, Page's attorney was talking legal action. They've been available online since October 2013, when the game launched.Īccording to the leaked emails, Page's legal team got in touch with Sony, and eventually Sony Computer Entertainment America, the PlayStation arm of Sony. Which is to say, yes, of course, images of a naked Ellen Page from "Beyond: Two Souls" are very much available online. Representatives for Sony Computer Entertainment, and Jeffrey Abrams, did not respond to repeated requests for comment.But if "Beyond: Two Souls" is run on what is known as a "debug" PlayStation 3, which is typically available only to game developers and journalists and lets you see content buried in a game's code, players can see Page naked. The email thread between Weil and Russell ends there, and we weren't able to find any legal cases in Los Angeles pertaining to Ellen Page, her legal representation, and Sony (or Quantic Dream). It's unclear where the legal action went, if anywhere, after that. The issue was enough for Sony to send takedown notices to websites publishing the images of Ellen Page's naked in-game character. Moreover, he said in one leaked email, "The developer has the responsibility, but that doesn't mean that I won't get sued." Russell said that the game's developer is ultimately culpable for the content of the game, not its publisher, Sony. Responding on February 4, 2014, Russell told Weil he'd, "started to look into this," but would need a few days to get all his facts together.
