What Is 3 Body Problem About?
The series is expected to tell a similar story as the book, which is about humanity’s first contact with aliens in the 1960s during the Chinese Cultural Revolution. At Netflix’s 2022 TUDUM, Alexander Woo described the story of the series as a “history of humanity from the point of first contact with an alien civilization all the way to the end of the universe.” Star Jess Hong said that “people who have read the books will be stunned to see how it’s been realized in the show. It’s going to be, visually, a feast.”
