Von den Machern von "The Witcher": Cyberpunk-Fantasyserie basierend auf den "Otherland"-Romanen von Tad Williams geplant
Die "Otherland"-Romane von Tad Williams sollten schon einmal verfilmt werden, nun planen die Produzenten von "The Witcher" und "Das Rad der Zeit" eine Serienadaption.
Platige Image (The Witcher) and Mount Devil, together with The Wheel of Time’s executive producer Mike Weber, are in the works on a TV series based on Otherland, the 4-book series by Tad Williams.
Otherland (the books and its TV adaptation) is described as “an epic cyberpunk-fantasy adventure.” The summary reads, “The world as we know it has an additional layer here – hyper-realistic VR arenas that have become a new place for fun, work, education but also debauchery, crime and abuse. The mysterious Otherland, supposedly another layer of the network, becomes a mere starting point for a multi-realm adventure.

Tad Williams might be one of the most important modern fantasy authors who has yet to have his work adapted for television or movies, but that is on the way to changing. Deadline reports that Polish studio Platige Image (The Witcher) is teaming up with The Wheel of Time executive producer Mike Weber to bring Williams’ cyberpunk fantasy series Otherland to the small screen.
