Acclaimed sci-fi writer John Christopher’s bestselling novel The Lotus Caves provides the foundation for a new series on Syfy. The network is moving forward on High Moon, based on The Lotus Caves, with a 90 minute pilot going into production later this year in Vancouver.
Bryan Fuller (Hannibal, Pushing Daisies), Jim Danger Gray (Pushing Daisies), Matthew O’Connor, Lisa Richardson, Tom Rowe, and Robert Halmi Sr. are on board as executive producers. Gray also handled writing duties on High Moon.
Announcing the project, Syfy President of Original Content Mark Stern said, “Bryan and Jim have brought John Christopher’s book to life in an incredibly vivid and imaginative way. This is a fresh and compelling vision of an exotic new world driven by character, intrigue and greed.”
The Plot:
High Moon creates a future where the countries of Earth have established colonies to mine the Moon’s resources. When a new life form is discovered, chaos erupts as various factions race to uncover and exploit its powerful secrets.
