CTOnews.com, December 20 (Xinhua)-- according to a recent report by Deadline, Apple's Apple TV+ has officially taken over the Murderbot TV series project, which is scheduled to air in 2025 with a total of 10 episodes.

The show will be co-directed by Chris Weitz and Paul Weitz and produced by Paramount Television Studios (Paramount Television Studios), starring Emmy winner Alexander Scarsgaard and co-produced.

CTOnews.com Note: the show is based on Martha Wells'"The Murderbot Diaries" science fiction, which won the Hugo Award and the Nebula Award.

The protagonist of this science fiction novel is the safety robot Skarsg å rd, which is both afraid of human emotions and attracted by fragile "customers".

Throughout the history of science fiction, it is common for machines to try to become human and become more like people, but not many machines want to be their own.

Martha takes a different approach, creating in the first person, leading the reader to a more fluent way of thinking of a half-human, half-machine AI, which is far more capable than human in all aspects, but is controlled by human everywhere.

As a ruthless killing robot of the company, Murderbot could have done whatever it wanted after hacking into its own control components, but it was attracted by human dramas, and "Free" spent nearly 35000 hours on movies, albums, books, stage plays and music.
