Netflix making an adaptation of The Three-Body Problem by Cixin Liu, which is one of the best sci-fi books I’ve read so far. It’ll be released in 2024 and I’m kinda hyped after that teaser.
For anyone who doesn’t know, there’s a Chinese Tencent adaptation (wikipedia) which originally aired January 2023, is not the same as the Netflix adaptation which is not yet released.
The Tencent adaptation is 30 episodes and currently available in full
in 1080pin 4K! with english subtitles from Tencent on their yt page:I’m about halfway through the Tencent adaptation and I think its accurate to the source material and accurately capturing the mood well, however:
I think I only recommend it if you’re a fan of the book because its not disappointing from that perspective really, but maybe the Netflix version will be comparably faithful while being structured a bit differently or having better storytelling. I look forward to comparing them.
