A show based on Philip K. Dick’s The Variable Man is in the works


Deadline reports that 'Humans' writers Jonathan Brackley and Sam Vincent are writing a show based on the 1953 novella.

The Variable Man follows a tinkerer turned accidental time traveler named Thomas Cole, who is transported from 1913 into the future and suddenly finds himself a reluctant player in an interplanetary conflict. “When you’ve got Sam and John doing what they did so brilliantly with Humans and exploring the modern world through a genre lens, it is something that can absolutely attract broadcasters in the US,” Motive CEO Simon Maxwell told the publication. SpaceX's Crew-10 mission has launched from Florida, taking new crew members to the ISS and allowing Suni Williams and Butch Wilmore to fly back home as soon as March 19.
