DESCRIPTION:
(from MGM+'s press release, March 2024) Premium linear channel and streaming service MGM+ announced today a six-episode limited series order for Earth Abides, a wildly imaginative new take on George R. Stewart's classic sci-fi novel of the same name. Created by showrunner Todd Komarnicki (Sully), the series comes from MGM+ Studios and executive producers Kearie Peak and Lighthouse Productions' Michael Phillips and Juliana Maio. The series will star Alexander Ludwig (Vikings) as "Ish" and begin production in Vancouver on April 8. Earth Abides is slated to premiere on MGM+ in late 2024. When a plague of unprecedented virulence sweeps the globe, the human race is all but wiped out. In the aftermath, as the great machine of civilization slowly and inexorably breaks down, only a few shattered survivors remain to struggle against the slide into extinction. |
