The War of the Worlds is a three part drama produced by Mammoth Screen for the BBC, coproduced with Creasun Media, in association with Red Square. This new adaptation of H.G. Wells' seminal tale — one of the first alien invasion stories in literature — follows George and his partner Amy as they attempt to defy society and start a life together, facing the escalating terror of an alien invasion, while fighting for their lives against an enemy beyond their comprehension. Filming began in Liverpool in April 2018. The show is expected to be released sometime in 2019.
