One of Netflix’s newest series just hit the platform and could possibly be one of the grandest sci-fi television series ever.
“Three Body Problem” is a new show based off a book series by Cixin Liu. The show is created by David Benioff and has a cast of many new actors like Jovan Adepo alongside with many seasoned actors like Benedict Wong, who many may know from his role in the MCU as Wong.
The series plays into the idea that we are not alone in the universe and follows how the many different characters in the series attempt to deal with the threat of an imminent alien invasion.
Many fans of television and even people who just know anything about TV know about the series “Game of Thrones.” Everyone hails the series as one of the best fantasy television series ever, but it is also infamous for its terrible final seasons that happened because the show writers ran out of material to adapt from and instead went off script. They did not do as good of a job as George R.R. Martin, the author of “Game of Thrones.”
Many fans of the “Three Body Problem” books are afraid that something like that could happen to the show but for a different reason. The book series is not only fully written in Chinese, but it is also very famous for being one of the most confusing science fiction works ever that delves into many intricate science fiction topics and theories of space. So, a lot of fans are worried that this could cause problems in the show.
Though it seems that the opposite may happen, the series was a hit with cult fans of the novels and shows us that there might be hope for the series and the potential that it has to succeed. Viewers should tune in now because this could possibly be the future of sci-fi television. If you finish the show and can’t wait to get more from the franchise, you can pick up the books and continue to indulge yourself in Liu’s world of pure science fiction excellence.
