Stargate Revival Gets Boost with WandaVision Creator
Amazon's Stargate series is back in development with Jac Schaeffer, creator of Disney+'s WandaVision, on board to lead the project.
A previous incarnation of the show was tabled in June, but Amazon MGM is moving forward with a new series from veteran Stargate producer Martin Gero. The latest development brings Schaeffer, known for her work on WandaVision and Agatha All Along, to the project.
Gero's earlier show was scrapped reportedly due to concerns about broad appeal beyond the franchise's dedicated fan base. The new series aims to attract a wider audience.
The Stargate franchise has a long history of sci-fi adventure, with a loyal fan base. Schaeffer's involvement could bring a fresh perspective and new viewers to the series.
No details have been released about the show's plot or characters, but a writers' room is expected to open soon to develop the series.
