The Peripheral (2022)

[Hornet 114]

Based on the novel "The Peripheral" by William Gibson (2014)

 

"Set in the future when technology has subtly altered society, a woman discovers a secret connection to an alternate reality as well as a dark future of her own."

 

 

 

Loved the novel. High hopes for this, although I learned that GreatDismal wasn't able to be on set for a lot of filming owing to health issues.

 

There had never been a truly good William Gibson adaptation. (I personally love Johnny Mnemonic tho.) Studios have been playing whiffleball with the Neuromancer rights since basically 1984. Here's hoping!

2eps in and it's exceeded expectations (and I was pretty excited to begin with.) Excited to see if they make the future as weird as it is in the novel. Heavy recc. Ep 3 on Friday.

Been looking forward to this. Looks really interesting. May try to make some time for it tonight.

Just heard about this recently and I'm definitely interested.  This looks crazy as fuck.
