TV & Film


After a brief hiatus, Game of Thrones showrunners David Benioff and D B Weiss have returned with another TV adaptation of an iconic series of novels. The Netflix Original series, 3 Body Problem, is an adaptation of Chinese author Liu Cixin’s Remembrance of Earth's Past trilogy of novels – The Three-Body Problem, The Dark Forest, and Death’s End. The series has become one of the biggest hits of the year and there is a strong possibility of Netflix greenlighting a second season for the ambitious project. While books have certainly earned a considerable fan following, a live-action adaptation posed a significant challenge. The showrunners took significant liberties from the source material for this page to screen adaptation. For today’s List Hai Toh Hit podcast, we take a look at some of the major changes from the books in the new TV series.
