Directed by the renowned director Alfonso Cuaron and based on PD James' novel of the same name, the story follows a disillusioned bureaucrat, Theo Faron, played by Clive Owen protecting a pregnant woman in a dystopian world where humanity is on the brink of extinction. As the film is based on a dystopian future, a series can provide time to build its atmosphere. A limited series can provide more depth to the characters and also give a glimpse of the socio-political situation of a childless society.
