David Benioff e DB Weiss have been at the center of much controversy over the past year regarding the ending of Games Of Thrones aired last year with the eighth season, but are now busy with another project. Netflix has in fact announced the next series of the duo of producers and writers. In fact, together they will adapt The Three-Body Problem, the first part of the trilogy Remembrance of Earth's Past, written by Liu Cixin. The first book talks about the contact between humanity and an alien civilization in part linearly, in part through flashback e flashforward. The first book is one of the most popular science fiction novels ever in China, also winner of the award Hugo.

The Lui Cixin trilogy is the most ambitious science fiction saga we have read. Take readers on a journey from the 60s to the end of time. From life on our pale blue dot to the edge of the Universe. We can't wait to spend the next few years of our lives bringing this work to life for audiences around the world.

Netflix announced the series, but also the participation of Rian Johnson, director of Star Wars: The Last Jedi and the manufacturing partner Ram Bergman as series executives. Cixin will also be the production consultant, as well as George RR Martin it was in Games Of Thrones.
I have the utmost respect and confidence in the creative team that will adapt The Three-Body Problem for the television audience. I decided to tell a story that transcends time and across borders of nations, cultures and races. It will be a story that forces us to consider the destiny of humanity as a whole. It is a great honor to be able to work on this type of science fiction and I am thrilled that fans around the world can discover this story on Netflix.
