Description
Based on the stories contained in this volume, the ten-part anthology series, Philip K. Dick's Electric Dreams is written and executive produced by Emmy-nominated Ronald D. Moore (Battlestar Galactica, Outlander) and Michael Dinner (Justified, Masters of Sex), with Oscar-nominated Bryan Cranston (Trumbo, Breaking Bad) both executive producing and appearing in the series.
Each episode will be a sharp, thrilling standalone drama adapted and contemporised for global audiences by a creative team of British and American writers. The series will both illustrate Philip K. Dick's prophetic vision and celebrate the enduring appeal of the prized Sci-Fi novelist's work. Other guest stars include Janelle Monáe, Anna Paquin, Timothy Spall, and Benedict Wong.
The ten stories included are:
The Hanging Stranger, The Commuter, The Father-Thing, Exhibit Piece, Impossible Planet, Sales Pitch, Foster, You're Dead, The Hood Maker, Holy Quarrel, If There Were No Benny Cemoli, Autofac, and Human Is.
