Netflix's behind-the-scenes video shows how the new adaptation of Liu Cixin's celebrated sci-fi novel crafted its most visually striking setting.
In Netflix’s 3 Body Problem, an important plot point involves characters—including Jess Hong’s Jin and John Bradley’s Jack—playing an unsettlingly detailed VR game, where they’re tasked with solving the very problem that gives the show its title. Bringing that surreal and vivid setting to life posed unique challenges for the show’s creators.
It was fun, especially for the actors and the show’s costume designer, though it took careful planning to get it right. “One of the big challenges was grounding all of the disparate visual strands of the show,” Weiss says. “There’s a historical element to the show. It needs to feel like you’re watching history, not like you’re watching television.” But in 3 Body Problem’s narrative, that recreation of history comes wrapped in technology far advanced beyond what humanity is capable of in 2024.
