If you happen to’ve been having fun with current sci-fi reveals like 3-Body Problem and For All Mankind, there’s a brand new present coming to the steady. Neal Stephenson’s sci-fi novel Seveneves is coming to the small display with a TV adaptation.
Per Deadline, Legendary TV has acquired the TV rights for the 2015 novel. The e-book facilities on the planet’s greatest scientists all realizing that an incoming meteor goes to shatter the moon into seven items on influence, and by extension, kill humanity within the subsequent two years. With a ticking clock, the world’s nations band collectively to discover a means to make sure the human race survives. And after vital time leap, the e-book then shifts focus to discover the aftermath of humanity’s preservation efforts, so you may think about how that may make for a great tv present. At time of writing, it’s unclear which streamer or community would be the one to select up the collection, since Legendary has labored with everybody from Netflix and NBC to Prime Video and HBO.
After its launch, Seveneves obtained fairly good opinions. It was up for a Hugo Award in 2016, and received the Prometheus Award for greatest novel that very same 12 months. At one level, it was even going to be tailored as a film courtesy of Skydance, and with Ron Howard to direct. These plans appear to have quietly died over time, opening the door for this present to occur. With a resurgence of sci-fi in TV over the previous couple of years (and forward-thinking sci-fi at that), now’s apparently the best time to attempt bringing this e-book to life, so hopefully it involves fruition within the close to future.
