BSG Movie oooh

Overheal

read on..

Yay! Even after the Sci-Fi Channel's space sock-hop Battlestar Galactica finishes its final season next year, there will still be more BSG for all—in movie form!

Former Gawker Choire Sicha is reporting for the LA Times that the first of as many as three Battlestar made-for-TV movies has just gotten the go ahead. And he got it right from Pretty Asian Cyclon herself, Grace Park: "'I just heard about the first Battlestar movie being greenlit,' said Park [...] A TV movie, but still! But this—it's like, yeah, it's over but we're ready to move on but nobody's manager or agent has been called. It's supposed to start in August.'" And what can she tell us about the end of the series?

"The cast has so far seen most of the series' final episodes, which will air in (sigh!) 2009. 'There's one episode where

everything is explained and I had to read it three times,' Park said. 'I had to sit down with [executive producer] Ron Moore and he had to break it down.'

"Among other tidbits (the interview with Park will run here on July 20), Park also confirmed

the presence of a child actor on set—one of the toddlers who plays her character Sharon 'Athena' Agathon's daughter, the Cylon-human offspring Hera."

I found the spoilers to be mild, but I tagged em just in case.

Movies are great when the TV series end - but the TV series is generally my preferred choice

Funnily enough I just watched the mini-series again last night. If they're as good as that then they'll be welcome.

So did I, how odd..

Great that the last episode won't be the end of BSG just yet

So, in 2009 we get the end of the series, and the three movies would be the progess on an earth-like planet, all depending on how the end of the series goes, of course.

Maybe it'll just be Lee and Kara and they'll have to repopulate the whole planet.

So you're saying they're making a porno? I'd buy that for a dollar. Oh yes.

.

Hasn't it been confirmed they would not be continuations of the storyline, more like companion peices [a la ''Razor''] eg. explaining stuff that happened in the past?

That might be more fitting...
