If you are looking for a new series to watch during the winter months you might be interested in a new bio hacking science fiction story called Biopunk, which will star Zachary Quinto.
The series is based on the book Biopunk: DIY Scientists Hack the Software of Life by Wired magazine’s senior business/technology writer Marcus Wohlsen.
Biopunk chronicles the underground world of bio-hackers—DIY garage scientists seeking to do for biotech what Steve Jobs did for personal computing. These are young and hungry guerilla scientists committed to democratizing DNA the way the internet did for information, with the ambition to build never-before-seen organisms that could solve the thorniest challenges in food, health, energy, and environmental protection.Quinto will play the iconoclastic leader of this movement who can’t wait for the future to get here fast enough
Zachary Quinto explains more about his new role :
Having spent some time in my career exploring the landscape of science-fiction — it is a particularly exciting step to delve into a world of science-fact. The unfathomably thrilling real-life work of bio-hackers is dramatically crafted with compelling and complex dynamics by Chase Palmer, and Marcus Wohlsen is a limitless source of insight into and information about this powerful and fascinating subculture. Legendary has been a great partner in the developmental phase of this project, and we are all beyond excited to assemble a first rate creative team and bring Biopunk to life.
As soon as more details are announced as to when the new Biopunk series will be aired we will keep you up to date as always.
