What is the “3-body problem?”

3 body problems or The three-body problem is an adaptation of the novel by the Chinese author Liu Cixin, which was translated in France in 2016 (published by Actes Sud) and followed by dark forest and immortal death. Bridging multiple worlds and temporalities, the story tells how a disastrous decision made in 1960s China travels across time and space, and five explorers face the greatest threat to humanity.

In the official press release, the showrunners introduced the series as follows: “Liu Cixin’s trilogy is the most ambitious sci-fi series we’ve read. It takes readers on a journey from the 1960s to the end of time, from life on our pale blue dot to the far reaches of the universe.

Through a hyper-realistic approach based on the exact sciences, as especially Christopher Nolan can, they will specifically explore these questions: “What would contact between humans and extraterrestrial species be like?” and “How many extraterrestrials can we talk about?” The Answer launches in March 2024 on Netflix.
