Ok! So it's more of a spin-off show. Very interesting, thanks for that.

has Katee Sackhoff ever been in anything that's not sci-fi?

The series has been added to NBC Peacock AND there's talk of a series coming

What We Know About Peacock's New 'Battlestar Galactica' Series

Quote:

“BSG fans, this will NOT be a remake of the amazing series @RonDMoore launched because... why mess with perfection?” Esmail tweeted the day the project was announced. “Instead, we’ll explore a new story within the mythology while staying true to the spirit of Battlestar. So say we all!”

So does he want to go back to kinda what Blood & Chrome did

return to the first war?

cause would have to be a prequel where don't see anything possible of a "sequel" considering how the series eventually ended

Quote:

From Esmail: "The word ‘reboot’ was used when we were first talking about it, and I cringed. Ronald Moore, he just hit it out of the park with his series, so why would I even want to touch that? I talked to him and said, ‘A, are you OK with this? And B, if you are, how do we proceed?’ He said he was OK with it as long as it wasn’t a reboot—which was in line with what I was thinking. But the world of Battlestar Galactica is so rich, the mythology is so interesting, that I think there is a lot to pick from and explore."

Quote:

Esmail confirmed this month on THR’s TV’s Top 5 podcast that the new Battlestar is being developed as a long-running series.

"There might be episodes that are longer than others. There might be a three-arc episode that could stretch along three episodes. There might be a standalone episode that’s a half-hour long. We want to play around with all forms. We don’t want to put any guardrails at all. We want to just tell the best story possible for each episode. … What we’re doing here is, every episode, you have the opportunity to change up the tone, to change up the point of view, to tell a different story, to dissect one thing or to go massively wide on another thing, so we are going to lean into that, not shy away from it.”
