3 Body Problem Has Taken Netflix By Storm With Its Gripping Plot
Inspired by Cixin Liu’s Hugo-winning 2008 novel The 3 Body Problem, the television series centers on a young woman’s catastrophic decision in 1960s China that reverberates throughout space and time into the present day.’ The summary provided by Netflix states: “A close-knit gang of talented scientists teams up with an unconventional detective to take on the biggest threat in human history as the rules of nature mysteriously disintegrate before their own eyes.
“The series portrays a fictional past, present, and future wherein Earth encounters an alien civilization from a nearby system of three sun-like stars orbiting one another, in an example of the three-body problem in orbital mechanics.” The makers of the hit television series Game of Thrones not only adapted, but it also stars several familiar faces from the series, such as Jonathan Pryce, John Bradley, and Liam Cunningham, who are best known to fans of the show for their roles as Samwell Tarley, High Sparrow, and Davos Seaworth.
