Netflix, in collaboration with Gold House, hosted an exclusive screening event of “3 Body Problem” in Los Angeles, followed by an unforgettable immersive experience at Wolvesmouth. This adaptation of Liu Cixin’s intricate book series represents one of Netflix’s ambitious projects, with David Benioff and D.B. Weiss, known for their work on “Game of Thrones,” leading the charge. Despite differing opinions on the finale of the fantasy epic, their involvement brings significant anticipation to this new venture.
The special event on Sunday night, orchestrated by Gold House, brought together art, cuisine, and cultural celebration to mark the premiere of “3 Body Problem.” The event not only praised the adaptation of Liu Cixin’s novel but also emphasized the importance of API representation and advocated for inclusivity across Latinx, Black, and LGBTQ+ communities, all showcased in the cast. Beginning with a screening of the series, the evening continued with a thought-provoking Q&A session moderated by Jenelle Riley from Variety, featuring panelists including David Benioff, D.B. Weiss, Alexander Woo, and Derek Tsang. Panel discussions delved into the portrayal of diverse cultures within the series, highlighting how “3 Body Problem” expands its Chinese origins to resonate globally through its multicultural cast, cultural consultants, and skillful storytelling.
After the screening and discussion, attendees were transported to Wolvesmouth, where they further immersed themselves in the world of “3 Body Problem.” Wolvesmouth transformed key scenes from the premiere episode into immersive photo opportunities and art installations, inviting guests to explore the series’ themes in depth. Each section of the venue featured a curated food and beverage station, capturing the essence of the diverse cultures represented by the cast of “3 Body Problem.”
