Netflix just announced its plans to turn Cixin Liu's "The Three-Body Problem" trilogy into an original, English-language science fiction series.

 

网飞公司宣布，计划将刘慈欣的《三体》三部曲改编成一部原创的英文科幻电视剧。

 

The show will be executive produced and written by David Benioff and D.B. Weiss (the "Game of Thrones" showrunners signed a multi-year deal with Netflix last year that is reportedly worth more than $200 million), along with Alexander Woo, who previously¹ served as showrunner for "The Terror: Infamy²."

 

"The Last Jedi" director Rian Johnson and his producing partner Ram³ Bergman are on board as executive producers, while Liu and his American translator Ken⁴ Liu will serve as consulting producers.

 

"I have the greatest respect for and faith in the creative team adapting The Three-Body Problem for television audiences," said Cixin Liu in a statement. "I set out to tell a story that transcends⁵ time and the confines of nations, cultures and races; one that compels us to consider the fate of humankind as a whole. It is a great honor as an author to see this unique sci-fi concept travel and gain fandom across the globe and I am excited for new and existing fans all over the world to discover the story on Netflix."

 

"Liu Cixin's trilogy is the most ambitious science-fiction series we've read, taking readers on a journey from the 1960s until the end of time, from life on our pale blue dot to the distant fringes of the universe," Benioff and Weiss said in a statement. "We look forward to spending the next years of our lives bringing this to life for audiences around the world."
