Philip K. Dick's Electric Dreams

Based on various writings from author Philip K. Dick, each of the 10 standalone episodes are set in a different and unique world - some which lay in the far reaches of the universe, and others which are much closer to home.

While the stories may be worlds apart, central to each is the poignant and warm exploration of the importance and significance of humanity. From five to 5,000 years in the future, each tale celebrates the enduring appeal of the sci-fi novelist's work.

The series features an all-star cast including Steve Buscemi (Boardwalk Empire), Bryan Cranston (Breaking Bad), Greg Kinnear (Heaven is For Real), Maura Tierney (The Affair), Mireille Enos (The Killing), Anna Paquin (True Blood), Terrence Howard (Empire), Timothy Spall (Mr. Turner), Liam Cunningham (Game of Thrones), Richard Madden (Game of Thrones), Holliday Grainger (The Borgias), Vera Farmiga (Bates Motel) and Juno Temple (Vinyl), among many others.

Each episode is inspired by one of Philip K. Dick's short stories and has been adapted by leading American and British writers and directors, including Ronald D. Moore (Battlestar Galactica, Outlander), Michael Dinner (Justified, Sneaky Pete), Tony Grisoni (Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas), Jack Thorne (Harry Potter and the Cursed Child), Matthew Graham (Doctor Who), David Farr (The Night Manager), Jessica Mecklenburg (Stranger Things), Alan Taylor (Game of Thrones, Mad Men) and Peter Horton (Grey's Anatomy, The Shield).
