After five years of development, the new Battlestar Galactica series won’t be going forward at Peacock.
TheBattlestar Galacticareboot is going to need a new home.
Peacock has dropped the show after it spent five years in development for the streamer.
And in that half-decade, Peacock never formally ordered it to series.
Beyond that, the other major streamers could potentially have interest in the show.
Michael Lesslie was hired to write the new show in 2020 before he left the project the following year.
Derek Simonds was hired to be the new Battlestar Galactica showrunner and writer at the beginning of 2024.
The Battlestar Galactica protected the fleet while they searched for Earth in the hope of finding sanctuary.
The short-lived sequel series, Galactica 1980, featured the fleet arriving on Earth in the present.
Syfy made a few attempts to keep the franchise alive following the conclusion of the second Battlestar Galactica series.
The prequel show, Caprica, only ran for a single season.
There haven’t been any updates on that project for a while.
