Then again, we wouldn’t rule it out entirely. Martin’s sci-fi stories won’t be happening any time soon. Unfortunately, it seems Buhler plans for a broader TV adaptation of George R.R. “People are becoming much more sophisticated.” “You don’t necessarily have to have a story and then the sequel and tell everything in a linear fashion,” he said.
Buhler admitted that this was a bit of a jump from Season 1, but argued that modern TV-watchers “desire stories that have more complexity and less-defined borders.” In that context, Nightflyers, which focuses on a group that leaves Earth in search or answers, could serve as the precursor to a much larger story about how humanity might adapt to life on other planets. It takes place after that initial space-faring civilization collapsed and picks up just as the humans on various planets finally reestablish interstellar travel and begin to reconnect with each other. The Thousand Worlds universe was comprised of a series of stories set in a distant future where humanity colonized space and set up societies on a variety of far flung planets. At NYCC 2018, Buhler told The Verge that he planned to adopt the writer’s Thousand Worlds universe into future seasons of Nightflyers.
The original Nightflyers novella may not have offered any source material beyond Season 1, but there was still plenty of stories in Martin’s bibliography. So we had a good framework, but we were also free to invent.” “It was really fun and freeing not to have five novels where everyone in the world had read every character and would go and say that person’s not supposed to do that and that person’s not supposed to do that. “George said to me, “I have no idea what you’re going to do beyond this,’ and I said, ‘We have some great ideas about Season 2 and where to go.’īuhler went on to explain the appeal of adapting a single novella into an expansive TV series, compared to a series of lengthy books like Game of Thrones has done. In a panel discussion at NYCC, Buhler recounted a conversation he had with Martin about Nightflyers’s future. That meant entering uncharted territory, and unlimited possibilities. The first episode of Nightflyers first premiered back at NY Comic Con 2018 in October, and in a series of interviews, showrunner Jeff Buhler described his vision for expanding the story beyond Season 1 and the novella it’s based on. The show was recently canceled, despite some “great ideas” for future seasons. But despite all that potential, it looks like Nightflyers won’t see a Season 2 release. Martin novella that’s basically The Shining in space. The premise for Nightflyers was immediately appealing, a sci-fi epic based on a George R.R.
