If the producers want to retain the spirit of the book, they'd have to take a film noir approach, and also include the reality of a world in which corporate conglomerates with private armies hold at least as much power as the traditional nation-states and institutions (e.g. Turing Registry). This might be challenging for Apple to embrace, it might not be the kind of dystopian vision the head office will want to promote. I also hope they don't try to update themes, in particular Rastafarian Zion habitat (sort of a 1970s concept) shouldn't be chopped out... all in all seems pretty challenging, and the result might be some atrocial rewrite like the Hollywood version of Ghost In The Shell.
