Show-runners, producers and writers Benioff and Weiss stated in 2024 they intend to adapt Cixin Liu's 'Remembrance of Earth's Past' book trilogy into a total of at most 4 seasons.
The series was due to be released in 2023, but showrunners Benioff and Weiss insisted on filming one more scene that wasn't originally in the script. Right around that time the Hollywood strike of 2023 started, and it delayed the filming of this scene for a few months, yet Benioff and Weiss insisted this scene must be added. Ultimately, the scene was filmed after the strike and the show moved for a March 2024 release due to that one scene.
David Benioff & D.B. Weiss' first major Television project since the conclusion of Game of Thrones in 2019. After GoT concluded, Benioff and Weiss signed a multi-million dollar deal with Netflix and were working on the show ever since. This is their first television series on the streaming service as part of the deal.
Based on the Chinese novel The Three-Body Problem by Liu Cixin.
