The Big Picture Game of Thrones creators David Benioff and D.B. Weiss are taking their epic book adaptation skills from one major streamer to another with Netflix’s upcoming 3 Body Problem. As high fantasy as the HBO series was, this one takes science fiction to a global level, based on the bestselling trilogy by Liu Cixin.
Check out the full interview in the video above for more on Benioff and Weiss' plan to move forward, where they are in the development of Season 2, creating relatable characters we care about, the changes from the book to the screen, the reasons behind them, and tons more. You can also read the full transcript below.
D.B. WEISS: For Season 2, we’ve got better than a rough idea. We’re much further along with that plan than rough idea stages. The farther away things get, the hazier your view of them is. But in the third book, there are so many amazing landmarks, in terms of scenes and situations and events, that we can see pretty clearly, that we know.
When you saw the shooting schedule, what day did you have circled in terms of, “Oh, my god, I can’t wait to film this," and what day was circled in terms of, “How the F are we going to film this?” BENIOFF: Yes. We did. We did. It’s interesting because we didn’t do a pilot this time. We just started and began shooting the season straight out, and there was never really a break or anything, which meant we were happy at the time that we didn’t have to shoot a pilot. We didn’t have to prove ourselves. Netflix gave us a full season, but it also meant you were kind of learning as you went along. You’re learning about the actors as you’re watching them in scenes for the first time.
BENIOFF: It comes back to the source material, right? Certainly George R.R. Martin's books were incredibly surprising again and again and again. One of the things we really loved about these science fiction novels is they don't start seeming like science fiction at all. You begin the first book, The Three-Body Problem, and it’s got a science fiction cover, and someone told me it’s got something to do with aliens. I start reading it, and it's set in the Cultural Revolution.
