This is the best summary I could come up with:


The streamer announced that it’s adapting William Gibson’s seminal cyberpunk novel Neuromancer into a 10-episode series.

Graham Roland (Lost, Jack Ryan) will serve as showrunner, while JD Dillard (Utopia) will direct the first episode.

In a press release, Apple said that the show “will follow a damaged, top-rung super-hacker named Case who is thrust into a web of digital espionage and high stakes crime with his partner Molly, a razor-girl assassin with mirrored eyes aiming to pull a heist on a corporate dynasty with untold secrets.”

Its been turned into a video game, a graphic novel, and is reportedly being made into a movie as well.

So far that has included series like Foundation, For All Mankind, Silo, Invasion, Monarch, and Constellation, which premiered earlier this month.

An adaptation of Martha Wells’ The Murderbot Diaries is also in the works, starring Alexander Skarsgård.
