The science fiction book "The Three-Body Problem" created by Liu Cixin has previously been broadcast in TV series and animated versions. In January 2023, the TV series "Three-Body" will premiere on CCTV8, Tencent Video, Migu Video and other platforms. Official data shows that within one hour of being online, the popularity of the "Three-Body" TV series on Tencent Video exceeded 25,000, breaking the first-day popularity record for Tencent Video dramas.
However, the development of the live-action movie version had many twists and turns. As early as 2015, the movie version of "The Three-Body Problem" had been put into filming. The director was Zhang Fanfan and it was planned to be released in 2016. However, in 2016, there was news that it had been shelved indefinitely. After 2017, the film almost fell into a state of "no news".
In 2018, the road to film and television production of "The Three-Body Problem" ushered in a turning point. At that time, A-share listed company Youzu Networks acquired Zhang Fanfan's company (the holder of the film and television copyright of "The Three-Body Problem") at a high price of 120 million, and won the film and television rights of "The Three-Body Problem". In May 2019, the TV series version of "Three-Body Problem" was officially approved; later Tencent Video announced at the annual press conference that the filming of the TV series "Three-Body Problem" had officially started. In addition, in September 2020, Youzu announced an agreement with Netflix to jointly develop and produce the English series of "The Three-Body Problem".
The official announcement of the film version of "The Three-Body Problem" directed by Zhang Yimou will undoubtedly make many "Three-Body Problem" fans excited. As a well-known science fiction IP in China, how the movie version of "The Three-Body Problem" will be performed has also attracted the attention of netizens.
