THE CAVES OF STEEL
SF CLASSIC TO BE TURNED INTO A FILM
According to Deadline, Oscar winner John Ridley is going to turn Isaac Asimov's sf classic THE CAVES OF STEEL into a sf movie. Story is set in
a future Earth where humanity has retreated into vast, domed cities, known as the “Caves of Steel”, to escape the harshness of the outside world. The story follows Elijah Baley, a New York City detective who is reluctantly partnered with R. Daneel Olivaw, a humanoid robot, to solve the high-profile murder of a “Spacer” scientist. Spacers are the descendants of Earth-born humans who have colonized other planets in the galaxy. As Baley navigates the investigation, tensions arise between Earth’s overcrowded, robot-wary society and the more advanced Spacer civilizations, which embrace robotic integration.

My husband might be interested in this...we just started a mini thriller series called The Madness..well, not that it's anything special, but we just don't know what else to watch...I am looking forward to series like Saprono, or Breaking Bad or Better Call Saul...
ReplyDeleteOy, I hated all of those you named, do not like shows that promote criminals and junkies.
DeleteLooks a bit cheap. But it's probably not one I would have watched anyway, so what do I know?
