Callum Turner has been cast in the lead role of the series adaptation of the William Gibson novel "Neuromancer" at Apple TV+, Variety has learned.

A couple months ago, it was rumored that Robert Pattinson might play Case in Apple TV+'s Neuromancer. It looks like that rumor fell through because it’s now official, Callum Turner will play Case. I’ll be honest with you, I have no idea who this guy is. But an official announcement about Neuromancer means this project is definitely moving forward!

This actor definitely has the ability to be an asshole - a key characteristic for anyone to play Case.

What is Cyberpunk?

Cyberpunk is a science-fiction sub-genre dealing with the integration of society and technology in dystopian settings. Often referred to as “low-life and high tech,” Cyberpunk stories deal with outsiders (punks) who fight against the oppressors in society (usually mega corporations that control everything) via technological means (cyber). If the punks aren’t actively fighting against a megacorp, they’re still dealing with living in a world completely dependent on high technology.

Cyberpunk characteristics include:

Dystopian city setting where mega-corporations rule
Full integration of technology into society, featuring cybernetic implants
Outsider protagonists (punks) who often are very familiar with the technology around them
Hard boiled detective and film noir vibes and influence
Themes dabbling in trans-humanism, existentialism, and what it means to be human.
