According to Grubb, whose source is the Director’s Guild of Canada Ontario website, the name of the TV show will be Horizon 2074 and it will feature two timelines. Considering that the name of the show involves a date, it is highly likely that one of these timelines will take place in the year 2074, leading up to the downfall of humanity. The other timeline, then, could take place in the era of the Horizon Zero Dawn and Forbidden West games, some hundreds of years after the fall of the “old ones.”
As well as revealing its title, Grubb also tells fans that the show will be set and filmed in Toronto, due to tax incentives. This shouldn’t clash too much with the setting of the Horizon games, which take place in North America without referring to specific locations. Also, from the Director’s Guild website, some of the names of the crew working on the Horizon show can be seen, including Jack Boem, who has worked on The Boys TV series, as well as Michelle Brady of The Expanse.
The story of Horizon 2074 is split across two timelines, as stated, but it will not copy the story of Horizon Zero Dawn beat for beat. Instead, it is rumored that fan favorite protagonist Aloy will feature, but she may not be the focal point of the series. Instead, Horizon 2074 will involve a reimagining of the major events from the games. While this might not be the faithful remake some fans were hoping for, the Netflix adaptation will still feature two main Horizon attractions: its world and machines.
Horizon 2074 is currently in production by Netflix.
