Not necessarily a reimagining, but a premise. A concept.

I'd kind of like to see someone do Brave New World a bit better. It was done in the 60s(?) but it's just a bit out of date today, while the book is absolutely something the world needs to think about now. A modern version might actually be even enhanced by certain elements of the modern style.

There was a modern attempt by Peacock in 2020. It got cancelled.

The adaptations quality, or that it got cancelled?

[–] Sunsofold@lemmings.world 1 points 4 months ago (1 children)

I haven't seen it. It's disappointing that it was cancelled.

Ah, it was okay. It was a reimagining of it. Very philosophical. Closer to Westworld imitation than Brave New World in many ways.
