Netflix to adapt Philip K. Dick novel The Future Is Ours

Netflix is developing an eight-part science fiction series based on Philip K. Dick’s 1956 novel, ‘The World Jones Made’, titled ‘The Future Is Ours’. The production is being compared to major dystopian works such as ‘Blade Runner’, ‘Silo’, and ‘Fallout’.

While the original novel is set in 2002 following a nuclear war, the series will shift the setting to South America in the year 2047. The narrative will explore a future defined by ecological collapse and the control of an authoritarian coalition known as FedSur. The story follows Jonas Flores, a preacher with the ability to anticipate future events, as he clashes with the ruling power.

Although the project has been confirmed with significant production backing, the official cast has not yet been finalized.
