HBO’s Time Traveler’s Wife Series Looks Better Than the Movie

No, you aren’t experiencing déjà vu. Over 10 years in the past, The Time Traveler’s Wife was a serious movement image starring Rachel McAdams and Eric Bana. It’s simply that now, in very becoming sci-fi trend, it’s coming again with new actors, a brand new artistic workforce, and an entire new outlet. And the primary trailer is right here.

Based on the 2003 novel by Audrey Niffenegger, The Time Traveler’s Wife—coming to HBO and HBO Max in May—is about precisely that: a lady named Claire (right here performed by Game of Thrones star Rose Leslie) is married to a person named Henry (right here performed by Divergent’s Theo James) who has a really peculiar genetic dysfunction. He simply randomly travels by time.

And whereas the 2003 film was a monetary success, grossing over $100 million on the field workplace, critics didn’t appear to love it. Now although, due to its new house, what was an almost 600-web page novel might be instructed as a six-half miniseries and never a 107-minute movie. Which, from the appears to be like of the trailer, looks like a superb selection.

I’ve not see the unique Time Traveler’s Wife film or learn the e book, which is likely to be why I used to be sucked in by that trailer. The conceit is ripe with questions and marvel. Plus the pictures within the trailer, of Henry disappearing at a sink or assembly his spouse as a younger baby, are complicated and fascinating. There’s a way that that is an intricate, delicate story which might be a lot better fitted to this format than a film.

Plus, it’s produced by Steven Moffat, who has been recognized to make a superb tv present or two (reminiscent of Doctor Who and Sherlock). All of those items simply add as much as what may probably be a extremely wonderful present.

The Time Traveler’s Wife debuts on HBO and HBO Max this May. Let us know what you consider the trailer beneath.
