Warner Home Video (WHV) and Warner Bros. Television (WBTV) have announced the start of production of Babylon 5: The Lost Tales, a made-for-video movie that will be targeted towards the "Babylon 5" loyal audience and science-fiction fans in general. The announcement was jointly made by Jeff Brown, Senior Vice President and General Manager, Non-theatrical Franchise, Warner Home Video and Gregg Maday, Senior Vice President, Movies and Miniseries, WBTV.
WHV will be the home entertainment distributor for this made-for-DVD release which will include two new "Babylon 5" stories collectively entitled "Voices of the Dark" in one film plus exclusive behind the scenes content. The stories will be written and directed by executive producer and original "Babylon 5" creator J. Michael Straczynski. Executive producer Doug Netter also returns in that role. Actors from the original series that have signed on to participate in the project include Bruce Boxleitner (President John Sheridan), Tracy Scoggins (Captain Elizabeth Lochley) and Peter Woodward (Galen).
The story of "The Lost Tales" picks up several years after the events of its original story, and follows several of its major characters in new adventures set against the backdrop of the Babylon 5 universe.
Sounds cool! I have to admit I loved Babylon 5. It was such a great sci-fi series, especially after the start of the Earth Alliance civil war.
