A Tsunami of Science Fiction Shows
From Jonathan Nolan’s planned epic version of Isaac Asimov’s Foundation to the vivid Expanse series, based on the James S. Corey series of novels. From Fred Pohl’s Gateway all the way to three different productions of John Scalzi tales, including (possibly) an adaptation of Redshirts. As a fellow at UCSD’s Arthur C. Clarke Center for Human Imagination, I am thrilled to see plans for Arthur C. Clarke’s concluding tale 3001 to reach the screen… …along with optioned stories by China Mieville, Kim Stanley Robinson, Octavia Butler, Anne Leckie, Dan Simmons and Ian McDonald and a timely remake of Brave New World, plus a TV series based on H.G. Wells’ War of the Worlds.
