The creator of the movie "Terminator 5: Genisys" Alan Taylor intends to make a television movie based on the work of the Strugatsky brothers "Roadside Picnic". This is reported by the publication Deadline. The project will be based on a script prepared by Jack Paglen, who previously worked on Supremacy.

The fantastic story "Roadside Picnic" was published in 1972. Its action takes place in the fictional city of Harmont, located near one of the so-called "Zones" - anomalous formations in which the laws of physics familiar to people are violated. The "Zones" are full of strange artifacts, some of which are very useful, while others are deadly. It is they who become the objects of the hunt of stalkers, in particular, Redrick Shewhart, who lives in Harmont. At the end of the story, the hero goes on his last trip to the "Zone" to find the legendary "Golden Ball", which, as stalkers believe, can fulfill any cherished desire.

In 1979, the movie "Stalker" was released, which was shot based on the story by the famous Soviet director Andrei Tarkovsky. The plot of the movie adaptation had practically nothing to do with the content of the book, except for individual titles, names and, in fact, the mention of the "Zones" themselves.

Terms of work on the new version have not yet been specified.
