Amazon Prime Video<\/strong> He has been showing a clear interest in the science fiction genre for some time and it does not seem that this commitment is going to go down. In fact, it has now been confirmed that he is preparing what could be the most ambitious science fiction series<\/strong> of the platform so far and has signed the director of ‘Chernobyl’ to make it a reality.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

A very influential novel<\/h2>\n

The series in question will be an adaptation of ‘The day of the triffids’<\/strong>an influential novel by john wyndham<\/strong> published for the first time in 1951, which already gave rise to a film in 1963 and two television versions, the last one by the BBC in 2009. However, the one by Amazon promises to be something very special, and that is that the objective is to make several different miniseries detailing the alien invasion from different points of view in different cities.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

‘The day of the triffids’ tells the story of an alien invasion on Earth through a meteor shower that blinds the vast majority of humanity<\/strong> and the few humans who keep their eyesight become the last hope for some monstrous plants brought from space that threaten to take over our planet.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

The person in charge of bringing the series to a successful conclusion will be Johan Renck<\/strong>, director of all the episodes of the acclaimed ‘Chernobyl’. A choice that could hardly be improved, but now it is necessary that the scripts also accompany, because here you will not have craig mazin<\/strong>, currently very busy with ‘The Last of Us’ -a work curiously very influenced by ‘The day of the triffids’-, to write it. In fact, it is still not even known who will be in charge of adapting Wyndham’s novel.<\/p>\n

In this way it seems that the idea of \u200b\u200ba new film of ‘The day of the triffids’ is ruled out, although initially the plan was that. In fact, in 2014 he even signed Mike Newell <\/strong>(‘The Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society’) <\/strong>to direct it, but the thing came to nothing, just the same thing that happened with a previous attempt that would have had sam raimi<\/strong> Behind the cameras.<\/p>\n
