It’s a big day for a certain Murderbot who just wants to watch its soaps. Apple TV+ has announced that it’s adapting Martha Wells’ The Murderbot Diaries series, with Alexander Skarsgård (True Blood, The Northman) on board as executive producer and to star as the titular Murderbot.
The scripts for the ten-episode season have already been written (before the writers’ strike, in fact), and production is set to start in just three months. Directors Chris and Paul Weitz (About a Boy, Mozart in the Jungle) are the creators of the show (as well as the writers, directors and producers via their banner Depth of Field) and also serve as executive producers. Other executive producers include David S. Goyer, the showrunner for Apple TV+’s Foundation series, Keith Levine from the company Phantom Four, and Andrew Miano for Depth of Field. Wells serves as a consulting producer.
If you're into sci-fi, Apple probably is a must at this point: Severance, Silo, For All Mankind, Monarch, Foundation
Yeah I was already on the edge due to Foundation… For all mankind not so much despite an important peer pressure : the trailers just didn’t move me. The others I haven’t heard about till now :)
There are other ones too like See, Hello Tomorrow, Invasion although they're less well rated.
