In late December 2023, Deadline revealed that Apple TV+—the streaming service that makes sci-fi adaptation fans’ dreams come true—was taking on Martha Wells’ much-loved Murderbot Diaries series, which kicked off in 2017 with the Hugo- and Nebula-winning novella All Systems Red. The 10-episode show is being produced by Alexander Skarsgård with Chris and Paul Weitz; Skarsgård will also star as “a self-hacking security android who is horrified by human emotion yet drawn to its vulnerable ‘clients.’” You can pick up a copy of the first book here.
