Oh shit, Neuromancer is coming to Apple TV as a 10 episode series. A Neuromancer movie’s been in development for years, I remember hearing rumors about it way back in the 2000s. A series seems like a better fit cause the book is so dense that it’ll be hard to cram everything into a 2 hour movie. As a huge fan of the book I’m cautiously optimistic that they can do it justice. The book came out in 1984 so at this point its vision of the future is almost retro-futuristic. But Apple TV’s become the go-to streaming service for sci-fi (they’ve done Foundation, Silo, For All Mankind, Severance, Monarch, and they also adapted The Peripheral, William Gibson’s most recent novel) so this might be the best chance the show would have.
