Netflix sci-fi drama ‘3 Body Problem‘ will return for at least 2nd Season (and likely more) as the streamer reveals a renewal which will cover the “full journey” of the “epic saga”, although haven’t specified the exact number of seasons and total episodes.
From multiple Emmy Award-winning creators David Benioff and D.B. Weiss (Game of Thrones), and Emmy-nominated Alexander Woo (The Terror: Infamy, True Blood), ‘3 Body Problem’ is a thrilling story that redefines sci-fi drama with its layered mysteries and genre-bending high stakes. Based on the acclaimed, international bestselling book trilogy, The Three-Body Problem.
A young woman’s fateful decision in 1960s China reverberates across space and time to a group of brilliant scientists in the present day. As the laws of nature unravel before their eyes five former colleagues reunite to confront the greatest threat in humanity’s history.
“We’re thrilled that we get to tell this story through to its epic conclusion,” said Benioff, Weiss, and Woo. “Ever since we read the last page of Cixin Liu’s magnificent trilogy, we hoped we’d be able to bring the audience to the end of the universe with us. Here we go!”
All other details are under wraps including the number of seasons and episodes which will be revealed at a later date.
“The extraordinary 3 Body Problem, brought to life with the deft hands of Benioff, Weiss and Woo will soar to never-before-seen heights as they tackle the rest of the mind-blowing journey through Death’s End,” said Peter Friedlander, Vice President, Scripted Series (US & Canada), Netflix. “Their brilliant vision as storytellers is matched by their amazing partnership — and, just like the fans, we can’t wait to see what they have in store.”
