Netflix’s sci-fi adaptation 3 Body Problem finally gets a full-sized trailer

Netflix's long-anticipated sci-fi series 3 Body Problem finally has a full trailer, following a short teaser released last year. This new trailer is over two minutes long and absolutely filled with exciting moments and tantalizing clues. Watch it below.

The show's based on a hit book series by Chinese author Liu Cixin. The showrunners include David Benioff and D.B. Weiss, formerly of Game of Thrones. Yes, everyone hates them because of the ending of HBO's fantasy epic, but here's the thing. 3 Body Problem is the first novel in the finished Remembrance of Earth's Past series, and the earlier seasons of Game of Thrones, when working from pre-existing material, were absolutely iconic. So this could be very good, though it has suffered from delays.

As for the plot, well it's complicated and hard to even discuss without getting into spoilers. The books are out there if you can't wait until the show's March 21 release date. As a clue, the clunky title actually refers to a common problem with both classical physics and quantum physics involving Newton's laws of motion and universal gravitation. In other words, it's hard sci-fi, but the books have plenty of action and mystery set-pieces, and the show looks to follow suit. Expect plenty of advanced technologies and otherworldly weirdness.

3 Body Problem stars Benedict Wong, Eiza Gonzalez and several Game of Thrones alums including Jonathan Pryce and John Bradley. Besides Benioff and Weiss, screenwriter Alexander Woo is on-board as a co-showrunner. Woo's best known for his work on True Blood and The Terror, among other well-regarded series.
