The Twisted Metal TV show will seemingly air this year, according to a tweet by PlayStation Studios head Asad Qizilbash.
Qizilbash tweeted a short clip of an elevator at a Sony building, showing the Gran Turismo logo on the elevator doors and artwork from The Last of Us on a wall.
“PlayStation Productions this year in one elevator ride,” Qizilbash tweeted, referring to the upcoming Gran Turismo movie and HBO’s currently ongoing TV adaptation of The Last of Us.
However, he also added: “You can’t see me, but my head is on fire too”, followed by clown and fire emojis.

The implication, then, is that Qizilbash was confirming that the Twisted Metal TV show will also be released this year.
