    RINGWORLD
    Network: Amazon Prime Video
    Based On: Larry Niven’s sci-fi series.
    The Fanbase: Devotees of these books have seen many attempted adaptations explode. They want this one to work.
    What We Know So Far: Prolific writer-director-producer Akiva Goldsman is working on the series, telling Collider in 2020 that Game of Thrones’ Alan Taylor would direct the pilot. Set in the future, the story focuses on Louis Gridley Wu — a bored
    genius who joins a young woman and a couple of aliens on an adventure to explore, and uncover, the mysterious of an area beyond their world.
    Chances It Will Be a Certified Fresh Hit: It had better be (see “the fanbase” above).

    Hey! Aliens! Not the four humans of an earlier iteration!

    Don't get excited. The "Politically Correct" whiners will have the
    project closed down because the aliens are not being played by real
    aliens. ;-)
