I think the Expanse and Cloud Atlas did it, are there any other good examples?

I thought that was pidgen so I looked it up if anyone is curious:

What is the difference between pidgin and creole? In a nutshell, pidgins are learned as a second language in order to facilitate communication, while creoles are spoken as first languages. Creoles have more extensive vocabularies than pidgin languages and more complex grammatical structures.
