'3 Body Problem' Season 2: Everything We Know

Jin Cheng (Jess Hong) holds up an apple while standing in front of an array of candles, in episode 103 of 3 Body Problem.

Netflix's 3 Body Problem is a science fiction feat and a colossal story that can be hard to wrap your head around. Created by Alexander Woo and former Game of Thrones showrunners David Benioff and D.B. Weiss, the eight-episode epic is based on Cixin Liu’s Hugo Award-winning Remembrance of Earth’s Past trilogy, which spans five continents and several centuries, from 1960s China to 400 years in the future. In the present day, scientists around the world are baffled as the laws of nature begin to unravel, coinciding with a series of mysterious deaths. A group of brilliant physicists called the "Oxford Five" are soon pulled into the fray and discover that one woman's decision decades ago could lead to the demise of the entire planet. (Long story short: Aliens are on their way to Earth, and humans have 400 years to prepare for an extraterrestrial war.)

With 3 Body Problem season 1 ending on an existential cliffhanger (give or take four centuries), there are seemingly endless possibilities where this inventive series could go next. Below, we've gathered every detail about 3 Body Problem season 2 so far.
