SNAKE EYES Director Robert Schwentke Developing a Post-Apocalyptic Series HELGOLAND 513: 2034
Director Robert Schwentke (R.E.D., Snake Eyes: GI Joe Origins) is developing a new post-apocalyptic sci-fi series titled Helgoland 513: 2034 for Sky Studios.
The series is based on an original idea from Schwentke and the story “imagines a world in which the North Sea island of Helgoland has become the last safe haven for humanity. But the totalitarian society in charge dictates that only 513 people be allowed to live on the island, with every resident given a ‘social ranking’ according to their ‘usefulness.’ All the while, a dangerous force from the mainland is preparing to invade and conquer Helgoland.”
The series will consist of seven episodes, and Schwentke is set to begin principal photography later this year. It sounds like this show will tell an interesting story and it will be a good project for Schwentke to work on.
