"Whatever this is, it's real."
To this day, Octavia Butler is the only author who's successfully made the "modern Black person travels back in time and gets enslaved" story work. I'm hoping that will carry through to this adaptation.
BRUH WE WUZ ENSLAVED N SHEEEEET
So glad it's a series and not a movie!
Thanks for the spoiler
@@Aroundthefire77 Don't worry this is actually not revealing too much, nor is it entirely accurate of the story. Octavia Butler is a far more complex author than this and theres plenty of surprises and revelations to be enjoyed
@@Aroundthefire77 if you haven't read the book, that's not really a spoiler it's literally just like a synopsis.
I'm not going to lie, I cried tears of happiness knowing that the story is getting adapted. This has been one of my favorite stories for years , I've read it over four times and I own the graphic novel. I am super excited for this adaptation and I hope they do it justice!!😝😝
THERE'S A GRAPHIC NOVEL???????rvw?re?versv?v?????????😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱
Wow! I gotta watch this.
YES!!! I read it with a book club. So happy its being made
I cried too ! I got so excited about this adaptation. I first read this book in my freshman year of College at Amherst.
My Daughter is the same, she's on her 3rd read and has the Graphic Novel too!
I haven't read it YET. I'm on Episode Two and Iike the Netflix Show so far. I'm wondering how it was adapted after having read it.
Did you like it? Did it do the book Justice?
This is what Antebellum would look like as a series. Shout-out to Octavia Butler who's finally receiving recognition.
Antebellum was awful, all hype.
@@soniamichelle2393 I wouldn't say it was hype at all. They borrowed from Kindred & the true history of how slavery for some in the USA lasted into 1970, which is insane, but it's also true! Of course they did it with a twist, but it was an invitation to demonstrate the power of a few to turn back time & recreate these unconscionable acts, to illustrate how it wasn't that long ago or that hard to do & how we should pay attention!
No this is different. Antebellum had nothing to do with time travel
@@Nabiyah1 “Alice” (with Keke Palmer) did that premise where slavery unknowingly was still happening in the US into the 1970’s.
@@nunyanunya4964 Correct. That was based on that same true story that I mentioned in my earlier comment.
Finished the entire series in one day. 10/10 so good.
YES! Please adapt all of Octavia Butler’s books into tv series\movies! This woman was a true gem! 😍
It'll be hard trying to make Doro work.
Black men won’t like that. That will be feminist and some Woke BS according to them.
@@chinezeolisah1308 I'm a black man though. You must mean white men because those are the ones on the thumbnails
Literally ALL!
The Earthseed books appear to be running as an ongoing documentary on the evening news - she was a prophet!
Octavia Butler THE OG of sci-fi! So glad her work is finally being adapted, she's an incredible author that I only came across at University - I was always shocked none of her work had been made into a film or series! Here's hoping they do Kindred justice 🙌
The “OG” of sci fi… you conveniently forget all the beautiful trailblazing black actresses as far back as 1898, the 1920’s, 30’s, 40’s, 50’s, 60’s 70’s and then 80’s and 90’s, such as:
Nichelle Nichols
Laura Bowman
Daisy Buford
Eartha Kitt
Vonetta McGee
Denise Nicholas
Kathy Lester
Emily Yancy
Minnie Gentry
Renn Woods
Marla Gibbs
Cynthia Belgrave
Marilyn Colman
Nancy Wilson, etc etc etc.
All these actresses were black trailblazers in the sci fi genre cast in lead roles in sci fi movies and shows who deserve the name OG as well. I’m just sayin’.
@Spirit Unbound lol ok 🤡 can’t be an “OG” when there’s only one or so, of you sheesh 🙄
Her work has been under constant option, meaning no one could make the adaptation unless the option holder relinquished. So in essence, her work has been suppressed while the world enjoyed the Terminator and Outlander series. But now, here we are!
@@lowrider81hd I'm talking about black sci-fi authors you fool lol - no one mentioned actresses.
I just read this book! It was a great story. I don’t know if I’ll watch because the story was an emotional rollercoaster ride and a little depressing at certain points but I am glad Octavia Butler’s work is being recognized.
Well it's about time! ALL of her books need to get made into movies, i.e. Parable series , Octavia had one of The Best minds, not just as a writer but her take on society & its future was just so insightful. I wish she was still here to finish the Parable series.
Yeah, I *need* the Xenogenesis trilogy (Lilith's Brood) to become a series. I read that Ava Duvernay was supposed to be adapting that one, but I never saw anything more about it.
@@TheAmityElf Clears throat... umm lets not forget the Patternist Series (Pattern Master). 🤗 Hell all of her writing is great! Whatever they do, if they do anything (including those works with Kindred) must be done correctly. My concern is that Octavia's writing much like Whitney's singing, often gets underrated due to effortlessness of brilliance, until someone tries to duplicate it. 👀
@@Nabiyah1 Very true! I haven't gotten around to the Patternist series yet; I'm actually reading Parable of the Talents now.
@@TheAmityElf The Patternist Series is my Favorite of all her writing; although I love them all for different reasons. I agree @ Xenogenesis, also excellent. I have that trilogy in hard cover. Have you read Fledgling yet?
@@Nabiyah1 I have started reading Fledgling! Haven't finished it.
I loved the book. So happy it's to the screen.
I have waited for decades for the screen adaptation. Can’t wait!
My favorite book by one of my favorite authors!
Just watched this on Hulu and omg love it! Ready for season 2 please 😊
Incredible show!! Please season 2 come quickly!!!!
They canceled it 😢
The partner fully believing her despite it not happening to him is an interesting take
EDIT: Hopefully that bit isn't intentionally misleading
It's in the book. He believes her.
@@granolabrownie Nice, thanks for the info lol hopefully they keep it as close to the book as possible then
Not sure what you mean? Where did you get that perspective? In the book not only does her husband Kevin believe her initially, but it happens to him too! There was no denying it.
@@Nabiyah1 in horror flicks no one believes when that one character who are being haunted by something supernatural lol have you not seen any horror film in the last 30yrs😂😭
@@Noproblem396 🤔 I read the book. Have you? Do you know who Octavia Butler is? She doesn't do horror. Her genre is Science Fiction (which she dominated btw). No one is being haunted by anything supernatural in Kindred. This is about involuntary, unintentional time-travel. And again, Kevin does believe her before he is also transported.
The dynamic between Dana and Rufus is a huge part of the book, so I'm very curious how the show will handle it.
I dont know if we will get the different ages yet since I think they only revealed one Rufus so far. Maybe each season will deal with him at a different age.
@@MonsterStew That's what I believe, too. But while we do have young Rufus, it would be a good time to lay some foundations for his fear of her abandoning him, etc. There's a lot that could be set up, even with just child Rufus.
I already noticed that she’s carrying Rufus away from the fire which is not what happens. In the book she has Rufus put out the fire himself and that’s where they have an important character building convo.
@@badbanana494 Yeah, I mentioned that in my other comment. I hope they still have the conversation at some point; the fact that it seems we'll be spending more time with Rufus as a child than was spent in the book could mean that more opportunities to talk will be created. They could really play up his self-destructive nature by adding new instances of near-death (or other kinds of danger) for him to summon Dana. I'm open to it, as long as they don't drastically warp what made the characters and their interactions so interesting.
@@TheAmityElf you’re much more optimistic than I am about this lol. I appreciate your open-mindedness. Clearly they are going to take “artistic liberties”, I hope they don’t disappoint you.
Kindred is in my top 3 all time favorite books. I’m intrigued to say the least!
I love Kindred so much. 😭
THUSO MBEDU🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉 The girl is coming for everything and I am soo proud 😭👏🏾
Very happy about this. I just hope it’s not a bunch of jump scares. The book didn’t feel like a thriller but more so sci-fi.
I think there were also thriller vibes, but I do see what you mean. I agree that the source material doesn't lend itself too well to a jumpscare style of horror. I think/hope the trailer music is the only thing leaning that way; the actual shots and scenes don't look quite so tonally jarring. Fingers crossed, right?
I love thrillers / ones that make u wonder
@@TheAmityElf It seems to have a little of the Get Out/Us vibe.
@@McQueenPress I see shades of that as well, yeah. I consider the former a thriller and the latter horror, but they play with the genre conventions of both.
I've been waiting sooo long for this. I read the book as a freshman in high school, then fell in love with Miss Butler as an author. She has a special place in my heart.
I’ve been waiting for this a long time. Finally they’re doing it. Kindred is an unforgettable classic.
Octavia Buttler best get her props and they better do right by her!
SO EXCITED! Loved the book in high school, happy Octavia's work is being broadcasts to new fans!
The book was scary enough. A true horror story I've read multiple times. Will be watching this.
I remember reading the book back in high school. Even if i wasn't that interested in reading books that didn't got my interests, i will admit that Kindred was one of the few books that i did liked reading in my English class. Like about time a series based on it has finally been made 😊
Absolutely amazing book. Can't wait for the show. I hope they do the book justice.
NO WAY. THIS BOOK FREAKIN RULES
I’m glad the story is short and compact, without rambling on and on. I just read it a few months ago. Important book that should be read in America.
I remember reading this years ago as a young Black woman. I was enraged at how the protagonist was treated, but it accurately reflected the treatment of enslaved Black people. Well done, Ms. Butler and may you rest in peace.
The book, Kindred, was my introduction to the works of Octavia E. Butler. I've read so many of her books and await others being made into movies. Movies I'd pay to see.
Octavia butler is awesome I truley love her work yes I do
I am an avid Octavia Butler fan. All of her books need to be made into movies! I cannot wait to see this.
Octavia Butler is amazing. She basically manifested her success.
No way. Octavia Butler is brilliant.
that last scene with the sleep paralysis lying on the floor unable to move or speak hit so hard
Octavia Butler is amazing! I hope they don't ruin it.
There is something unique and promising about this...
Will add to my watch list!
Finally someone decided to adapt this superb book from a super author. Octavia Butler is a must.
Are you kidding me? I read this book so many years ago and loved it! I can't believe they have a mini series coming out about this.... Finally! I can't wait to see this!!!!! 😀❤️❤️❤️
Thank you to all in the comment section. I just got the audiobook. I'm on chapter one and it's a great book so far
I waited 30 years for a movie or series adaptation of Octavia Butler's book, and I plan to watch this, spoiler free, when it comes out. I can't wait.
The first time I read this book 'Kindred' it was for a college course. I've read the book three times since then, I can't wait for the movie.
WOW! "Kindred," by the late and great Octavia Estelle Butler is one of the most intense, racism-themed and time-travel themed novels ever written. I DEVOURED both the novel and its graphic novel adaptation, and I AM so glad I continue to subscribe to Hulu.
Did I mention "WOW?!"
Wait.. there is a graphic novel?! Now I have to go on a hunt!
@@aldakendall4921 Sure is! I knew when the graphic novel came out we were just a little bit closer to getting a screen treatment.
This is the first OB book I read.. I CANNOT WAIT for this!!
I am SO excited for this! The book was incredible and Octavia Butler is an extremely gifted fictional writer!
Time for me to give this book another try. I really loved the story, what I read of it anyways, but it was very hard for me to read as a black woman. I just kept picturing myself and ancestors so I had to stop for my own mental health. But it is such an important book so I definitely want to give it another go, especially now that it is getting an adaptation.
Same. I ended up reading a recap of what happens in the rest of the book, but I still intended to eventually go back an finish it properly but never did. I did read and finish Fledgling though, and quite enjoyed that.
Kindred is a masterpiece and horror especially for Black people. I was scared and yet couldn't put it down bc I had to know the end. There were times I felt visible present and cried . I don't know how it will be received by a people unfamiliar with her work. They might think "just another slave movie"
I get that! Alot of people really liked Parable of the Sower and it took me a couple of times to read it because it was just really sad and challenging. Personally I love the first contact series Xenogensis by her the most. Love rereading it.
None of her books are easy reads. They all have this heavy undertone. But I still love all her works.
I remember reading this book in college and thought this was amazing g and finding out she has a whole collection of science fiction and a black women who was the author… I’m so glad where work is coming to adaptation I can’t wait
I’ve been waiting for this moment since 2005 😢. I read this book in college and boy was I HOOOOOKED!!!
Loved this book, one of my favorites. Excited for the adaptation
As someone who regularly travels between various time periods to steal candy from babies who grow up to do terrible things (you're never getting your Fliegerschokolade back, baby Hitler!), I can confirm that this series has an accurate portrayal of how disorienting that ability can often be.
dude 😭😭😭😭
id watch this
Lol 😆. Would be great entertainment
Kindred is a wild book.
Octavia is finally getting her due, I got chills....
This book was so dope
i couldnt read this book bc it was too complex but this show looks right up my alley idk
I read this book back in high school, just a random pick on the shelf, and to this day 20+ years later I still think about it!! Cannot wait to watch!!
Oh man this book was amazing. Didn't even realize this was a thing.
I just saw the trailer on TV. One of my favorite books. On the edge of my seat while reading it. I can only hope that this adaptation does it justice. I can't wait .
I remember I had to do a report on this book in order to graduate the 8th grade I look forward on watching this
Can't wait, Octavia Butler is a gem
Omg, I have been waiting for them to do this for the past 15 years. I absolutely loved this book and I love OBs style of writing. She’s up there with Rice. Love love love it and can’t wait. I haven’t been this excited about a book coming to film in a long time.
Amazing cut of this trailer. I’m walking away not knowing what to expect but totally enthralled.
Of all her books,OF COURSE they choose this one
The Parables would have been really fitting for today’s time
The book was great and this looks like it’s going to be super accurate
Finally! Would love to see Parables of the Sower and Talents come to life considering the world we know is becoming exactly what she wrote about decades ago. Wildseed would be dope too, but I would like Jordan Peele to tackle that project.
The anxiety of it all
Wow.. unbelievable. Kindred is a book I read in High school and fell in love with. Went out and bought it. I cannot wait until this is released.. I'm super excited. At least another show worthy of watching if they stick to the book as a guideline.
I read the book years ago and am ecstatic that I recently discovered this series. One episode and already my favorite watch of 2022!
Finally !!!! So happy, I can't wait to watch😻
I cannot wait for this to drop! One of my favorite books from my favorite writer!!! Hope the adaptation lives up!
This was such a good book. One of my favorites
My fave author. Please do Ms. Butler justice. May she RIP
PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE READ THE BOOK FIRST. Octavia Butler is one of the best sci-fi writers of her time. She was such an icon in the black communities literature and literature in general. Please read.
I really hope it's just as good as the book.
I remember reading the book in English 10 in high school. A unique story indeed. Can't wait to watch it.
Amazing! Can't wait and I really hope Parable of the sower and Parable of the talents is next.
The funny thing is, the world has caught up to what she wrote twenty-five, thirty years ago. But still worthy of exploration.
I saw the pilot episode a few months ago and really enjoyed it. Hoping they improved on a few of the issues but overall it was clear that the it was heading in a great direction. As someone who hadn't read the book the 1st episode was intriguing and made me excited for whenever it would finally debut.
I highly recommend reading the book some because it’s phenomenal.
This was one of my favorite books back in highschool! I'm excited to see how this turns out.
As everyone is saying the book was amazing I passed around to everyone I know. Unfortunate never got it back but I enjoyed the discussions we all had about it
Octavia E Butler is one of my favorite authors! This looks like it could be a good adaptation.
I READ THIS BOOK IN MY BLACK WOMEN IN AMERICA CLASS. LOVED IT! AND IT LOOKS LIKE THE EPISODES WILL BE JUST LIKE THE BOOK 👏🏽
OMFG i can't be more excited!!!
I loved this book. It painted a great picture of the unhealthy relationship between enslaved people and their masters.
Finally! Octavia Butler is the truth! It’s taken way too long for AT LEAST one of her books to make it’s way to our screens. I hope this does the book justice. Next up, Parable of the Sower, please.
I'm so happy, I can't wait!
Omg I loved this book! Cannot wait for this
Me and my class read this story in our Junior year. I’m surprised this story is getting an adaptation. I didn’t get to finish the story myself, but I will see how this adaptation turns out.
If you have it in you, go back and finish. There is an audio book of that helps. It's worth it
From what I can tell, this adaptation is not being very faithful to the book. If you can, please read the book. Let Octavia tell her story, not Hulu.
I’ve never read this but I’m going to take a stab at the plot. She actually does travel through time, does something heroic to do with slavery that effects her current day existence. Bonus points if her or her husband/partner are lineage of slaves and/or slave owners.
Nope
Close
@@FeelingFitFabFun lies
I loved the book. This looks good
They better not f this up.
Hmm. There have a been a few of these enslaved to modern era like visuals recently. However I am intrigued by an Octavia Butler perspective. Will check it out.
Does it mean we could also get a Patternist series starting with Wild Seed?
yep (hopefully), amazon bought that one and dawn, hbo bought fledgling, and a24 bought parable of the sower. look for a blog called the portalist from last dec "These Are All the Octavia Butler Adaptations Currently in Development" been sitting on the shelf a couple years, hopefully this gets popular and they get steam again
@@mallorykane2843 OMG I hope her books get adapted. I am looking forward to any such news in the future!! Thanks for the info.❤️
I’m trying to wait to finish the book but I’m very excited to see the series!
Oh all that is most definitely REAL!!!
One of the best novels I have read this year. And this looks good.
I just finished reading it as well and it’s very good. One of my favorites. I had to go out and search more of her work.
@@charleybenjamin4074 Yes. I read her two novels in the now forever unfinished Earthseed Trilogy after Kindred. Found them to be quite well written too. Will soon start on her other novels.
This is amazing! I've always wanted to read the novel.. now I've got a month to get to it before the series airs lol.
OMG! I've been waiting years for this book to be made into a movie. A really good movie, I hope.
Oh man…. The book was amazing
The book was phenomenal, I hope the show can do it justice.
Octavia Butler is a legend and my personal favorite author of all time! I love Kindred! I pulled over to watch this trailer..... I CANT WAIT!
Just started the book, and so far, I am very impressed.
Yes! yes! yes! Finally!!!! I read the book and the graphic novel. Please let the series be as good as the book.
