  • In July, 2017, the creator of the series Game of Thrones, HBO, announced plans to shoot a mini-series about the accident at the Chernobyl nuclear power plant. Then the start of filming was announced on 2018 year.
  • The choice of location fell on Lithuania, because there, as in many former Soviet republics, there are many buildings and locations where the spirit of that time is still preserved. Several final episodes were shot in the summer of 2018, in Kiev.
  • 7 May 2019, HBO announced the launch of the television mini-series "Chernobyl" manufactured by HBO and Sky.
  • The series’s screenwriter was Craig Mazin, known from the films The Hunter and the Snow Queen, Without Feelings, Charlie's Angels, and directed by Juhan Renk (The Walking Dead, Breaking Bad). He called this work the largest project in his career.
  • The scenario is based on real events that have occurred since the accident for two years after it. The creators tried to recreate as accurately as possible all the costumes and scenery of that time and constantly consulted with the former residents of Pripyat and people from Ukraine.
  • “We hope that viewers from Ukraine and Belarus will feel - we understood them correctly,” said Mazin. - Clothes, hairstyles, traditions, culture, everything is true. Thus, we show our respect. ”
  • Craig Mazin has Ukrainian roots. He says it helped him to feel the depth of the tragedy. The creator of the series says that "Chernobyl" is not accidentally coming out right now.
  • “The world should know the complete history of the Chernobyl catastrophe, which entailed such terrible consequences. The world must also know the names and faces of people who have so heroically behaved in the fight against an invisible deadly enemy, ”says Craig Mazin. “If we forget about the scary pages of history, they can happen again,” he adds.
