The mega-corp acquired the rights to the entire franchise when it bought out MGM in 2022, and ever since, there\u2019ve been rumblings of a new series coming to Amazon Prime Video. Today, it was confirmed, and Stargate is coming back as a streaming series that\u2019s being touted as its own entry in the franchise, with the new showrunner, Martin Gero, saying point-blank, \u201cIt\u2019s not a reboot.\u201d Long-suffering fans have waited decades for more of the hit franchise, and the rest of the news today proves that the wait was worth it.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"mb-4 text-lg font-bold\"><strong>The Original Stargate Creative Team Is Back<\/strong><\/h3>\n<figure class=\"relative mb-4\">\n<div class=\"relative\"><button aria-label=\"View larger image\" class=\"group absolute bottom-3 right-3 size-10 md:size-[50px] lg:inset-0 lg:size-full lg:bg-transparent\" data-ylk=\"elm:expand;itc:1;sec:image-lightbox;slk:lightbox-open;\"><span class=\"absolute bottom-0 right-0 rounded-full bg-white p-3 opacity-100 shadow-elevation-3 transition-opacity duration-300 group-hover:block group-hover:opacity-100 md:p-[17px] lg:bottom-6 lg:right-6 lg:bg-white\/90 lg:p-5 lg:opacity-0 lg:shadow-none\"><svg viewbox=\"0 0 22 22\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"size-4 lg:size-6\" width=\"22\" height=\"22\"><path d=\"M12.372.92c0-.506.41-.916.915-.916L21 0l-.004 7.712a.917.917 0 0 1-1.832 0V3.183l-6.827 6.828-1.349-1.348 6.828-6.828h-4.529a.915.915 0 0 1-.915-.915M1.835 17.816l6.828-6.828 1.349 1.349-6.829 6.827h4.529a.915.915 0 0 1 0 1.831L0 21l.004-7.713a.916.916 0 0 1 1.831 0z\"\/><\/svg><\/span><\/button><dialog aria-label=\"Modal Dialog\" aria-modal=\"true\" class=\"fixed inset-0 z-4 size-full max-h-none max-w-none bg-white hidden\"\/><\/div><figcaption class=\"relative text-sm mt-1 pr-2.5\">\n<p>The original crew of <em>Stargate SG-1<\/em><\/p>\n<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">First off, it\u2019s the fact that Martin Gero is the new showrunner. Gero got his start in Hollywood on <em><a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.giantfreakinrobot.com\/?s=stargate\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"slk:Stargate Atlantis;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" class=\"link \">Stargate Atlantis<\/a><\/em> and would go on to write episodes for every series in the franchise, direct the Atlantis episode \u201cBrain Storm,\u201d and even serve as a creative consultant for the back half of <em>Stargate SG-1<\/em>. If anyone were to bring back the franchise, it should be someone who helped bring it to life in the first place, which is why it\u2019s especially impressive that Gero\u2019s not the only one returning to Stargate Command.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Before<em> SG-1<\/em>, <em>Stargate <\/em>was a blockbuster action sci-fi movie directed by <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"link \" href=\"https:\/\/www.giantfreakinrobot.com\/topic\/roland-emmerich\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"slk:Roland Emmerich;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\">Roland Emmerich<\/a>, and now, 31 years after he opened the gate for the first time, Emmerich is back for the Amazon series. Joining him is his long-time collaborator Dean Devlin, who not only worked on the original movie but has gone on to craft a generation of fun, light-hearted cable shows, including <em>Leverage<\/em> and <em>The Librarians<\/em>. If anyone will get the unique tone of Stargate right, it will be those three.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Even then, they aren\u2019t alone. Brad Wright, co-creator of the Stargate television universe, is on board as a consultant, and during Amazon\u2019s event, he explained that his goal is to do things they couldn\u2019t do in 1997. He echoed Gero\u2019s enthusiastic statement that the new show won\u2019t rely on 350 episodes of accumulated knowledge, but can be enjoyed fresh, and then, he hopes, everyone will want to go back and watch the franchise from the beginning.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"mb-4 text-lg font-bold\"><strong>The Possibilities Are Endless<\/strong><\/h3>\n<figure class=\"relative mb-4\">\n<div class=\"relative\"><img alt=\"&lt;em&gt;Stargate Universe&lt;\/em&gt;\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"900\" height=\"507\" decoding=\"async\" data-nimg=\"1\" class=\"rounded-lg\" style=\"color:transparent\" src=\"https:\/\/s.yimg.com\/ny\/api\/res\/1.2\/OyWYsb84mxnCW3e_2WjW7w--\/YXBwaWQ9aGlnaGxhbmRlcjt3PTk2MDtoPTU0MTtjZj13ZWJw\/https:\/\/media.zenfs.com\/en\/giant_freakin_robot_articles_628\/22d702959fc36695e890c7b54e5523aa\"\/><button aria-label=\"View larger image\" class=\"group absolute bottom-3 right-3 size-10 md:size-[50px] lg:inset-0 lg:size-full lg:bg-transparent\" data-ylk=\"elm:expand;itc:1;sec:image-lightbox;slk:lightbox-open;\"><span class=\"absolute bottom-0 right-0 rounded-full bg-white p-3 opacity-100 shadow-elevation-3 transition-opacity duration-300 group-hover:block group-hover:opacity-100 md:p-[17px] lg:bottom-6 lg:right-6 lg:bg-white\/90 lg:p-5 lg:opacity-0 lg:shadow-none\"><svg viewbox=\"0 0 22 22\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"size-4 lg:size-6\" width=\"22\" height=\"22\"><path d=\"M12.372.92c0-.506.41-.916.915-.916L21 0l-.004 7.712a.917.917 0 0 1-1.832 0V3.183l-6.827 6.828-1.349-1.348 6.828-6.828h-4.529a.915.915 0 0 1-.915-.915M1.835 17.816l6.828-6.828 1.349 1.349-6.829 6.827h4.529a.915.915 0 0 1 0 1.831L0 21l.004-7.713a.916.916 0 0 1 1.831 0z\"\/><\/svg><\/span><\/button><dialog aria-label=\"Modal Dialog\" aria-modal=\"true\" class=\"fixed inset-0 z-4 size-full max-h-none max-w-none bg-white hidden\"\/><\/div><figcaption class=\"relative text-sm mt-1 pr-2.5\">\n<p><em>Stargate Universe<\/em><\/p>\n<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Beyond the creative team, little is known about Amazon\u2019s new Stargate series. Will it provide closure for the Destiny\u2019s crew from <em><a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.giantfreakinrobot.com\/?s=stargate\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"slk:Stargate Universe;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" class=\"link \">Stargate Universe<\/a><\/em>?

Most importantly, will every planet look like Vancouver?<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Given how each of the shows ended, there\u2019s plenty for the new series to develop, even if it will be an entry point for newcomers. The Goa\u2019uld and Ori stories ended in the direct-to-DVD movies, <em>Continuum<\/em> and <em>Ark of Truth<\/em>, but who\u2019s to say another system lord hasn\u2019t popped up in the ensuing years? <em>Stargate Universe<\/em> revealed more about The Ancients, and who knows what technology is out there, waiting to fall into the wrong hands.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Stargate fans have plenty to speculate about as the new series is still early in development, and there\u2019s no release date. There\u2019s no cast, no setting, and no characters, but none of that matters, because finally, 14 years after the franchise went dormant, fans can celebrate.
