Step aside Netflix, Splinter Cell is getting a BBC Radio 4 adaptation

Look out Netflix, Amazon, HBO, and Paramount; the BBC wants in on that juicy video game adaptation action and is bringing Ubisoft's beloved Splinter Cell series to life in a new Radio 4 drama, starting next Friday, 2nd December.

Splinter Cell's audio adaptation - officially titled Tom Clancy's Splinter Cell: Firewall - follows series protagonist and Fourth Echelon agent Sam Fisher on a mission to recruit and train the next generation of operatives for the National Security Agency's covert action division.

Firewall stars Andonis Anthony as Sam Fisher, and Daisy Head as his daughter Sarah. Other cast members include Sacha Dhawan , Will Poulter , and Nikesh Patel .Splinter Cell has been adapted for radio by Paul Cornell and Sebastian Baczkiewicz. It's also been recorded in 3D binaural audio for some added ear-pizzaz.

If all that has you suitably intrigued, Splinter Cell: Firewall will broadcast every Friday at 2.15pm on BBC Radio 4, starting 2nd December. Alternatively, all eight episodes 30-minute of the series will be available as a boxset on BBC Sounds, also from next Friday.

Splinter Cell once again getting everything but a new game.

I'd love to seen more of this actually. With the resurgence of podcasts, non-music audio-only media is worth checking out again.
