Apple TV+ has ordered a series adaptation of the William Gibson award-winning novel Neuromancer. Variety reported that the 10-episode series is from co-creators Graham Roland (Dark Winds) and J.D. Dillard. Roland will also serve as showrunner, while Dillard will direct the pilot. Skydance Television is co-producing with Anonymous Content.
According to the official logline, the series "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."
"We're incredibly excited to be bringing this iconic property to Apple TV+," said Roland and Dillard in a joint statement. "Since we became friends nearly 10 years ago, we've looked for something to team up on, so this collaboration marks a dream come true. Neuromancer has inspired so much of the science fiction that's come after it and we're looking forward to bringing television audiences into Gibson's definitive 'cyberpunk' world."
