Battlestar Galactica coming to the big screen ?!

Posted by:

Director/Producer/Writer and Composer Glen A. Larson talked to IESB, during the "Buck Rogers" DVD release event last night, and told them, that he is still interested in making a "Battlestar Galactica" movie, with the series original cast Dirk Benedict and Richard Hatch.

Because of Larson owning the theatrical rights, there would be no problem to make a movie with the old series cast, although thereâ€™s the new TV-series out. The crew behind the original late 70â€™s series thinks about the new series that: "The new Battlestar Galactica is not a bad show but they should of called it something else."

Richard Hatch and Dirk Benedict would like to wear their "Battlestar Galactica" uniforms again, and even though there is no storyline yet, Larson said, that the movie would be faithful to the original series and of course the fans: "We have some pretty good ideas and it will be a great journey to bring BSG back.".

Other projects of Glen A. Larson involve "Knight Rider", "Magnum P.I." and "Fall Guy", but there are no scripts written till now. Never the less, Larson promised that there are some "Knight Rider" news coming in the very near future.
