Battlestar Galactica (film)

Battlestar Galactica is an upcoming film set for a theatrical release.
== Development ==
The prospects of a feature-length film arose after the conclusion of Season 4 of the Ron D. Moore TV series in 2009. When formally announced in 2011, Bryan Singer was hired as director of the project with the goal of establishing a new continuity inspired by 1978's Saga of a Star World, though it remained in pre-production owing to Singer's commitment to X-Men: Days Of Future Past. Following the 2014 lawsuit and allegations of historic sexual abuse of young actors, Universal dropped Singer and his production studio, later announcing in June 2016 they had hired Francis Lawrence. Lawrence would also leave the project, with Simon Kinberg signing on in 2020.
In January 2021, Kinberg confirmed in an interview with Collider the film was on its second draft and that it would be in a shared universe with the Peacock Battlestar Galactica series.
