She Needs To be in That One Too

It’s not every day that a beloved, yet often neglected video game like Sleeping Dogs catches the attention of Hollywood, and it’s even rarer that such attention leads to a potential movie adaptation. Yet, here we are, against all odds it looks like the dream is real, with Marvel star Simu Liu leading the charge.

While some fans were hoping for a sequel to the game, it looks like Liu is taking a different route, first pushing forward with a live-action adaptation. And with this exciting new direction, we think one key actor who should be involved is none other than Emma Stone.

Some may ask, “Why specifically her?” Well, for those unfamiliar with the game, Emma Stone was actually a part of the game, and this connection makes her an essential addition to this project.

While Stone may not have had a large role in Sleeping Dogs, her involvement was significant enough to draw attention. In the game, Stone voiced Amanda Cartwright, a non-playable character (NPC) that players could take out on a date.

Even though it was a small role, it brought star power and recognition to the title. As a two-time Academy Award winner, Stone’s involvement in a small video game role might seem surprising to some.

But, with such a highly successful career in Hollywood, Stone brings a level of prestige that few others could. If Liu’s movie moves forward, it would be a missed opportunity not to see Stone back in the world of Sleeping Dogs, whether she reprises her role as Amanda or steps into a new character.

Her charm, wit, and talent could effortlessly translate to the movie and for those who remember her character, it would bring a sense of nostalgia.

Simu Liu recently ignited excitement among Sleeping Dogs fans when he tweeted that he is working with the rights holders to bring the beloved video game to life on the big screen.

However, it seems that things are progressing faster than initially thought. A recent report from

suggests that the live-action adaptation is already in development, with Liu set to both produce and star as the lead character, Wei Shen.

This move highlights Liu’s passion for the project, and it’s no surprise that fans are also eager to see the game come to life in a new form.

What’s more, having two big names like Liu and Emma Stone working together could make this movie a hit, and if the stars align, it might even lead to the much-anticipated sequel fans have been waiting for.

In the end, even though it’s speculative regarding Stone’s involvement, if she truly joins the cast, this movie will be one fans won’t want to miss.
