Very interested in how much money they’re willing to throw at this. The broad strokes plot of Neuromancer makes for a pretty compelling heist story, but it’s a heist that takes place in space, mostly from the perspective of cyberspace, and all of it reads like it would cost a lot of money to recreate. It’s also near certain that all of the subtext is going to get scrubbed out of the show, because Wintermute is the kinda dangerous AI that spooks people, and to my understanding Apple doesn’t like negative portrayals of AI.
It might have some pretty visuals, but it’s hard to trust Apple to make anything punk.
Remember Johnny Mnemonic with Keanu Reeves? The original short story takes place in the Neuromancer universe. I loved that movie.
I once spoke with William Gibson when he came to my city for a book club and told him about it. He said he really didn’t like the movie and it turned out into what he considered a joke. It really surprised me.

They spent a ton on ‘Foundation.’
