“End of childhood” / “Childhold's End” December 14, SyfyThe classic science fiction novel Arthur Clark “The End of Childhood” has not yet risked filming. Why? Matthew Graham, a man who decided on this adventure, says that everything is simple: “There are no heroes or villains. There is nothing to fix here, there is no one to fight with. In this new world, everything that we live now is sharply losing its meaning, almost to indistinguishability. ” The aliens who flew in order to save humanity, and not destroy it - what other concept can be more dreary for an ordinary producer? The mini-series “Childhold's End” was lucky-it is produced by the Oscar and the Golden Globe Laureate Akiv Goldsman (“Reason Games”). The main alien will be performed by Charles Dance (strict father Tywin Lannister from Game of Thrones ), and an ordinary farmer will become an intermediary between humanity and guests - in the novel of Clark it was the UN Secretary General. It is headed by the project of Matthew Graham, the creator of the British retro-detective “Life on Mars” , where coma, amnesia and time travel mixed with Deep Purple riffs in such a cocktail, which is not scary to die. Graham promises to fans of Arthur Clark to be a faithful text, although he has already transferred the action of the book to modernity. Six episodes of Childhold's End will be released on the Syfy channel, and this is the only thing that you really expect a catch from.
