There isn’t much in this article, other than a reminder that Neuromancer is currently filming in Tokyo. Also, I don’t think it’s been announced what role Emma Laird has so I don’t know if it really hurts things for her to not have read the book. We’ll see how well this quote ages though:
It’s a very confusing book, but I think somehow bringing that onto the screen helps tell that story maybe a bit more clearly.
I’ve tried to read it twice. I got further the second time but it just didn’t hold my interest.
