Who would not like to hear a nice story about the past, the present, and the future within a sci-fi setup? Well, Netflix understands this well and is perhaps coming with the best of its time. From the creators of Game of Thrones, David Benioff and DB Weiss, the streaming giant will premiere the enthralling adaptation of 3 Body Problems in January 2024.
Having said that, we must also acknowledge that the attempt here is to adapt one of the most celebrated sci-fi novels of its time, 3 Body Problem by the Hugo Award winner, Liu Cixin. And even though its trailer keeps almost all the plot details under wraps, we have some intrinsic facts about satellite invasion, alien planets, and a woman’s gasping discovery that would compel scientists around the globe to join forces and fight the great alien threat.
From the creators of Game of Thrones comes a stunning new blockbuster series unlike anything you’ve seen before.

Whether the tale is that of caution or inspiration (to the unknown forces) we do not know. But what we do know is, “anything might be out there.”
Furthermore, we also know that given the multiple layers and complexities of the Netflix original, people are already grooving for it.
Fans are all decked up for 3 Body Problems from the creators of Game of Thrones
While many may not have welcomed the association of the Game of Thrones producers to the show with a happy heart, they are certainly looking forward to seeing what the adaptation has to offer. The book lovers claimed, “It’s gonna be absolute perfection.” Meanwhile, the trailer itself is “incredible” for others.
As someone who read all 4 books, in German and English, it told me its gonna be Absolute perfection

Furthermore, some also acknowledge that the “scope is truly enormous.”
I can not wait! The scope is truly enormous and the books are finished. This will put the whinging to rest from the people who proclaim the showrunners of Game of Thrones are terrible. It won’t be the first time the loud whingers will be proven wrong🖐🏾

Also, to others, the trailer looks stellar and they believe in the tone of storytelling even if they cannot believe in D and D brothers.
While I don't trust D and D, this trailer has everything you'd like in a 3BP adaptation. Looks stellar, has the right tone, and understands the story being told. This looks incredible.

Moreover, some fans also look forward to watching the series because it is not an easy task to adapt fiction like this from the book to the screen. So, they seem to be ready to wait and watch how it unfolds.
Looking forward to see how this one pans out. Not an easy one to take from book to the screen..

Are they gonna adapt all 3 books? Been a while since I read them, but the first book seems difficult enough to adapt to screen, and the 2nd and especially 3rd book get very abstract and very complicated, no idea how they will do it

Some also say that “it’s unfilmable.” But hope is perhaps something to cling on.
I‘m very curious if they’ll also do third book since there are concepts that are very hard to even imagine. I would even say it’s unfilmable. But lets see.

Furthermore, others who do not know a bit about the series also state that they will be seated for the actors.
I'm just excited John Bradley is in it! He was so emotional over how much love he received 🥹
