It must feel good to be a fan of the cyberpunk genre.
Apple TV has released the first trailer for its adaptation of William Gibson’s 1984 sci-fi classic Neuromancer — one of the foundational texts of the cyberpunk genre. The novel follows Case, a washed-up cyberspace hacker recruited by a mysterious ex-soldier to pull off a high-stakes heist alongside a razor-fingered assassin.
Set against a neon-drenched, futuristic Japan, the trailer leans noticeably brighter than fans of the novel’s noir-soaked prose might expect. Callum Turner (Eternity, One Night Only) headlines as Case, joined by Briana Middleton (The History of Sound) as the “razorgirl” Molly Millions and Mark Strong (The Penguin, Dune: Prophecy) as the enigmatic Armitage. The ensemble also includes Clémence Poésy, Peter Sarsgaard, Emma Laird, Max Irons, André De Shields, Isabella Pappas, and Dane DeHaan.
The ten-episode series is set to premiere on Apple TV on Jan. 22, 2027.
