    The main character is named Thomas with a completely different personality, and it's set in a '60s era city, rather than the more primitive setting we got in the final version. I stopped at the spoiler warning in the interview, so I don't know for sure, but it sounds like the end is different two.

    So it sounds more like the original book written by Pierre Boulle.
