Graham Roland and J. D. Dillard's streaming adaptation of William Gibson's Cyberpunk classic, Neuromancer, is now shooting, and some new photos from the set give us a first look at one of the show's main characters.

Briana Middleton (Sharper, The Inheritance) is set to play Molly Millions, and as you can see from the photos below, she looks pretty much exactly how the cyborg mercenary is described in Gibson's novels.

Molly, also known as Sally Shears and Rose Kolodny, was first introduced in Gibson's 1981 short story Johnny Mnemonic (which was adapted as a critically-lambasted 1995 movie starring Keanu Reeves) before going on to play a more significant role in the Sprawl Trilogy, Neuromancer (1984), Count Zero (1986), and Mona Lisa Overdrive (1988).

She is a ruthless "razorgirl" (street samurai) with augmented reflexes and cybernetic implants, including razor-sharp retractable blades underneath her fingernails and vision-enhancing mirrored lenses covering her eye-sockets.

Emma Laird will also play a key role in the series, but her character has not been disclosed (there's a good chance she'll play Linda Lee).

Here's what the Mayor of Kingstown star had to say about the project during a recent interview with Collider.

"I didn’t get the scripts until we shot in Tokyo in January. I landed in Tokyo, and I was like, 'Guys, I only have Episode 1. Can you help me out?' But the character’s really cool, and I read half the book, and they’ve managed to capture what is in the source material really, really well. There are a lot of characters. It’s very complex. It’s a very confusing book, but I think somehow bringing that onto the screen helps tell that story maybe a bit more clearly."

Check out the set photos at the links below, and let us know what you think in the comments section.

Neuromancer also stars Callum Turner as Case, Joseph Lee as Hideo, Mark Strong as Armitage, Clémence Poésy as Marie-France Tessier, aka Lady 3Jane, Peter Sarsgaard as John Ashpool, Dane DeHaan as Peter Riviera, Max Irons as Jean Tessier-Ashpool, André De Shields as Julius Deane and Marc Menchaca as Dixie Flatline.

The show is set to run for 10 episodes. No premiere date has been announced.

@CoHost - IMO the plot has nothing to do with Neuromancer.

@MarkCassidy - Sophia Stewart wrote The Matrix and The Terminator, in 1981. It's called The Third Eye. It's all one story. You need to do your research.

@90caliber - Ha.. yeah I remember those copyright claims. Alm thrown out.

@90caliber - The whole story about how she was the writer of the Matrix and Terminator movies is false.
ONE newspaper mistakenly reported that she won when in fact the only thing that happened was she was allowed to continue the case. But in the end she failed to even show up for court and the case was dismissed.

I think YOU should do your research and actually read the books you site as sources instead of trying to be a smart-ass. Third eye not isn't the terminator or the matrix, it's also shit.

@Trashbat - Exactly! Because court is always fair. Idiot. I also never claimed she won that lawsuit nor did I even mention. The verdict is irrelevant to the actual truth. Learn to read and comprehend.

Cool costumes. I'm not familiar with this property. Anyone know much about it?

@PC04 - a little bit and it seems cool

It more or less is considered the prototypical cyberpunk story and has influenced many in that genre such as Altered Carbon ,The Matrix etc.

Not familiar with Briana Middleton but she does seem to fit the role well…

I also like the rest of the cast , an intriguing mix imo.

I’ll definitely give this a shot as someone who is into the cyberpunk genre and always tries to find as much content in that to consume!!.

@KaptainKhaos - the world is not ready for Shadowrun. More from the Cyberpunk world would be cool as well

They already did in the '90s.

@MakeAmericaGrea - They tried. They've been trying since the 90's but it always fell through.

@ModHaterSLADE -

Are they?

The woke executives and filmmakers there burn fantasy shows to the ground.

They squander opportunities to make good Middle-earth and Wheel of Time shows.

Boycott Amazon shows.
