Based on Liu Cixin’s acclaimed novel ‘The Three-Body Problem’, the first season premiered in March, receiving widespread acclaim. The trio of creators expressed their excitement to bring the story to its ‘epic conclusion’ after being captivated by Cixin Liu’s trilogy, PTI reported.
“We’re thrilled that we get to tell this story through to its epic conclusion,” said Benioff, Weiss, and Woo in a joint statement. “Ever since we read the last page of Cixin Liu’s magnificent trilogy, we hoped we’d be able to bring the audience to the end of the universe with us. Here we go!”
Peter Friedlander, VP of Scripted Series at Netflix, praised the creative team’s vision and partnership, anticipating that the series would reach “never-before-seen heights” as it progresses through the story.
