The Cylons have won: No "Battlestar Galactica" remake

Five years of planning have come to nothing: the remake of the cult military science fiction series "Battlestar Galactica" will not be realised.

Now, the magazine wants to make the remake.

Now, the magazine Variety claims to have learnt that the show will not go ahead. According to an unnamed source, Variety states that the project is being offered for sale to other services - it is not clear whether a buyer will be found.

This is what "Battlestar Galactica"

is all about It's a classic battle between man and machine, between creator and creation. The Cylons are intelligent machines that rebel against their creators, the humans. After a forty-year truce, the Cylons unexpectedly attack all twelve colonised planets and bring humanity to the brink of extinction.

The show was also so well received because it had so many iconic moments and characters and drew viewers into the setting. I like to think back to the bad-tempered and occasionally alcoholised XO with his eye patch or the always rebellious but masterful pilot Starbuck. Or the absurdly funny scenes with Gaius Baltar and Number 6. The octagonal design, which can be found everywhere in the series, for example on the crockery and logbooks, has also stayed in my head.

Would you like to see (another) new version of "Battlestar Galactica"? Write it in the comments!

Feels just as comfortable in front of a gaming PC as she does in a hammock in the garden. Likes the Roman Empire, container ships and science fiction books. Focuses mostly on unearthing news stories about IT and smart products.
