Netflix's 3 Body Problem features some major changes from the book.
3 Body Problem is now available to stream on Netflix, and the series is an adaptation of the award-winning sci-fi novel by Liu Cixin. This new show was created by Game of Thrones alums David Benioff and D.B. Weiss along with True Blood producer Alexander Woo, but it's not the first series to tackle Cixin's Remembrance of Earth's Past trilogy.
Throughout the series, it is eventually uncovered that the San-Ti are headed to Earth looking for a new home after their planet with three suns became uninhabitable. The aliens originally hoped to share the planet with humans until their ongoing contact made them realize that people are liars. The San-Ti communicate their thoughts openly, making them incapable of lying.
The Chinese adaptation by Tencent covers all three books whereas the first season of the Netflix series only tackles the first book, which means Benioff, Weiss, and Woo are hoping to have more seasons on Netflix. If you're hoping to see the San-Ti, that might never happen. The books never actually show the creatures, and when asked by ComicBook.com if they plan to take any liberties in potential future seasons, the show's creators didn't specify.
3 Body Problem stars Benedict Wong, Jess Hong, Jovan Adepo, Eiza González, John Bradley, Alex Sharp, Rosalind Chao, Zine Tseng, Jonathan Pryce, Ben Schnetzer, Liam Cunningham, Marlo Kelly, Sea Shimooka, Saamer Usmani, and Eve Ridley.
