The new series is set to chronicle the fallout from a young woman’s decision made in 1960s China and, like the book, will take viewers on a thrilling journey through space and time.

The new series will “immerse audiences in investigative mysteries and earth-shattering discoveries, before potentially catastrophic consequences come to life as we know it,” according to Netflix. But who stars in the new sci-fi series and when can we expect it to land on our screens?
