Michael Faries (webmaster@battlestargalactica.com) from BattlestarGalactica.com, sent along a message on January 10th, 2001, that the
Sci-Fi Channel (U.S.) has recently considered bringing
back "Battlestar Galactica." and they may be proceeding with
a new production effort at this time with NO battlestar and NO involvement from Richard Hatch nor Glen A. Larson. This rumor seemed to be confirmed by the Sci-fi Channel on the Sci-Fi Wire (owned by Sci-Fi Channel) website on January 26th. This news article disappeared mysteriously on January 27th, without explanation. This confirmation was then retracted on January 30th, and we are awaiting further information. Other news services such as Aint-it-cool-news (1/17/01), Dark Horizons (1/19/01), and SFX (UK) (1/23/01) had picked up on the story prior to those announcements, so we may get some support from those sites. Richard "Apollo" Hatch and Jack "Bojay" Stauffer have posted their opinions.
UPDATE
The latest news (02/22/01) indicated that Bryan Singer (X-Men director) will reinvent an updated Battlestar Galactica television series for Studios USA. Variety reports Singer has made a deal with Studios USA to executive produce it with his X-Men partner Tom DeSanto. The drama will be shepherded by USA senior veep of drama programming Dan Pasternack, with creator Larson also aboard. Please Click Here! or on the Alert! graphic above for the latest details and help us take action! The Singer story is on Page 5 of the Alerts.
