When the crack team of scientists and soldiers entered the “Stargate,” armed rebellion on a planet a million light-years away was the last thing on their minds. Now that it’s started, no one can ignore it – not commando Jack O’Neil, not renegade Egyptologist Daniel Jackson, and most of all not the newly freed people of Abydos.

Sci Fi Channel sets Ark of Truth television debut

Justin Nolan — Thu, 22 Jan 2009 13:22:06 +0000

More than a year after its initial release on DVD, Stargate: The Ark of Truth is finally gearing up for its American cable broadcast premiere on the SCI FI Channel. The film will hit television screens on Friday, March 27 at 9 p.m. (8 Central), immediately following a rebroadcast of the final episode of Battlestar Galactica.

Serving as a conclusion to the Ori storyline that was halted by the cancellation of SG-1 as a series, The Ark of Truth finds the team searching for an artifact that can stop the Ori and their followers once and for all. Along the way, they’ll discover another threat by an old enemy plus a traitor in their midst, and an unexpected source of help.

Mallozzi Reveals a Few Atlantis Movie Plot Points

Justin Nolan — Wed, 14 Jan 2009 18:23:22 +0000

“When we were breaking Enemy at the Gate,” Mallozzi explained in order to set the stage, “we saw it as a very special episode, not because it would be our series finale (at the time, we were somewhat optimistic that we would get that sixth season pick-up), but because it was going to be our 100th episode. For that reason, it turned out to be a little different from past finales, less a cliffhanger and more of a coming full-circle that featured the star of the series: the city of Atlantis.

“It was also intended to be the launching point for a very interesting early season 6 scenario:

“With Atlantis back on Earth, why the hell would the I.O.A. ever let it go? And if it remained, which, by all indications seemed likely, what would become of its occupants, especially Ronon and Teyla?
“Also, with a permanent station in the Milky Way, wouldn‘t Atlantis, logically, cease to be a launch point for gate travel and, instead, become a research center for Ancient technology?”

The Season Six opening two-parter is now the first Stargate Atlantis movie, about which Mallozzi declared, “[W]e’ll be able to tell our story on a much bigger, visual effects-laden, character-centered canvas.” Shooting is expected to take place this summer for either a late 2009 or early 2010 release (the Sci Fi Channel is expected to premiere the movie before it will be released on DVD).

StarGate Atlantis Movie Green-Lighted

Justin Nolan — Mon, 25 Aug 2008 22:51:38 +0000

SCI FI Channel has announced that it has given a green light to a two-hour movie based on Stargate Atlantis. The SCI FI channel will air the as-yet-untitled film as a world premiere before its release on DVD.

Announcement of the new film follows similar telefilms based on SCI FI’s Battlestar Galactica and two straight-to-DVD Stargate SG-1 movies, Stargate: The Ark of Truth and Stargate: Continuum.

The Atlantis movie will be written by executive producers Joseph Mallozzi and Paul Mullie, who also serve as the series’ show runners.

The movie is set to follow the fifth and final season of Stargate Atlantis in January 2009.

“We’re excited to tell Atlantis stories on a bigger canvas,” said Brad Wright and Robert C. Cooper, co-creators of SG-1 and Atlantis, in a statement. “The successes of the two original Stargate [direct-to-video] movies The Ark of Truth and Continuum have shown us the opportunities that the movie format offers. We have plans for both SG-1 and Atlantis to remain vital as we expand the franchise.” Atlantis will air a milestone 100th episode in January 2009

A Sad Day for StarGate Atlantis Fans

Justin Nolan — Thu, 21 Aug 2008 14:17:51 +0000

I just hear today that the Sci-Fi channel is going to cancel StarGate Atlantis at the end of its 5th season. Since the show is going to end with a cliffhanger they have green lit a 2 hour StarGate Atlantis made for TV movie. So we have that to look forward too.

MGM’s Official Stargate website has added a new video feature entitled “The Return of Richard Dean Anderson”. There are several clips from Brad Wright’s Stargate: Continuum, so needless to say, there are plenty of spoilers!

To watch the video, which includes Wright’s relating how Anderson’s return came about and what it was like to have him back on the Stargate sets, go to MGM’s main page and click on “Watch Exclusive Video Now!” You’ll need the latest Flash Player.

Continuum Made Character Suffer

admin — Fri, 23 May 2008 19:23:22 +0000

The upcoming straight-to-DVD movie Stargate: Continuum, based on SCI FI Channel’s original series Stargate SG-1, gave producers a chance to wreak havoc on a main character to serve the exigencies of the film’s location shooting. (Major spoilers ahead!)

Writer and executive producer Brad Wright told SCI FI Wire that the script called for Daniel Jackson (Michael Shanks) to lose a leg–but not simply to serve the writer’s whim.

Rather, Jackson had to become disabled to meet the needs of the production, which shot several scenes in the Arctic when Shanks was unavailable.

“I had to finish the Arctic scenes first, before we started to shoot [Stargate: The] Ark of Truth,” Wright said in an interview in Vancouver, Canada, last week. “It was kind of weird. We shot all the Arctic scenes, and then took a long, long break, shot another movie and then did Continuum.”

The plot required Col. Cameron Mitchell (Ben Browder), Col. Samantha Carter (Amanda Tapping) and Shanks’ Jackson to be together on a wrecked ship in the Arctic. But because of a scheduling conflict, “Michael wasn’t available to do the Arctic shoot,” Wright said. As a result, Jackson isn’t in any of the early footage of Mitchell and Carter struggling to survive on the ice.

Continuum Expands SG-1

admin — Thu, 15 May 2008 22:29:03 +0000

Brad Wright, writer and executive producer of Stargate: Continuum, told SCI FI Wire that making a Stargate feature film is very different from making series episodes. “We’ve done so many two-parters, you’d think it would be easy to just make it longer,” said Wright, who spoke to SCI FI Wire following a press screening of the direct-to-DVD film in Vancouver, B.C., on May 14.

But a feature, Wright explained, has a very different structure.

“It’s much more fun in some ways to do a movie, because the story can evolve the way it’s supposed to. It doesn’t have to owe anything to the episode before or the episode after. That was the fun part, to actually write a movie and not just a long episode.”

Wright took that opportunity to have some fun and ran with it. Stargate: Continuum features the return of beloved series actors such as Richard Dean Anderson and Don S. Davis, as well as fan-favorite villain Ba’al, played by Cliff Simon. Fans of Claudia Black’s Vala will see a whole new side of her character as well.

But perhaps the biggest difference is the chance to take a deeper look into the personalities of the main characters, made possible by the more luxurious running time. Even amid all the action, one of the film’s highlights is a sequence in which Mitchell (Ben Browder), Carter (Amanda Tapping) and Jackson (Michael Shanks) return to an Earth where the entire Stargate project never happened.

Stargate movies need O’Neill says Brad Wright

admin — Thu, 15 May 2008 04:26:43 +0000

This summer fans will be treated to the second Stargate direct-to-DVD feature, Stargate: Continuum, a film which will not only rip away the boundaries of what the franchise has done, but will also return to core staples, such as Jack O’Neill.

Richard Dean Anderson will be getting some much-anticipated screen time in Continuum, and if executive producer Brad Wright has his way, it won’t be the last.

“For me, an SG-1 movie should include O’Neill. That’s how I feel about Stargate,” Wright told us. Already a third SG-1 movie is being considered, and if nothing else, Brad says Jack needs to be back.

A Sneak Peek Inside Stargate’s Ark of Truth

admin — Thu, 06 Mar 2008 10:28:14 +0000

TV Guide has a new article written by Ileane Rudolph concerning the upcoming DVD release of Stargate: The Ark of Truth, letting viewers know that “we’re happy to share that it’s all about SG-1’s search for a fabled weapon that’s reportedly the only chance to stop the Ori from taking over Earth.”

In addition to covering the upcoming release of the movie on DVD (March 11 in North America), Rudolph also mentions the return of Richard Dean Anderson as Jack O’Neill in Brad Wright’s Stargate: Continuum. This stand-alone story is an “alternate time-line venture, where no Stargate program exists and the long-vanquished Goa-uld rule.”It also mentions that Cooper’s and Wright’s Stargate Universe, the third television series, has not yet be signed off on by the Sci Fi Channel. The premise of this new show, according to Rudolph, “will have a new setting yet allow for crossovers from the other series. Rudolph also hints at a possible summer-time premiere for Season Five of Stargate Atlantis:

Producers Screen “Stargate: Continuum”

admin — Thu, 21 Feb 2008 07:39:46 +0000

With less than three weeks left before the world premiere of the first direct-to-DVD movie, Robert C. Cooper’s Stargate: The Ark of Truth, producers took the afternoon yesterday to screen Brad Wright’s Stargate: Continuum at Sharpe Sound in Vancouver.

The official world premiere date for Continuum has not yet been announced, but Wright offered, “It will be released in July. It was going to be later, but MGM and Fox decided to take advantage of the energy that comes along with Comi-Con in terms of the release.” At last year’s Comic Con held in San Diego, there were several buses covered in Stargate advertisements, promoting the movies and the two series. According to Mary McNamara at Multichannel News, “MGM’s senior executive vice president of finance and corporate development Charlie Cohen said the studio decorated 10 buses and has already reserved the vehicles for next year.” Comic Con will be held in San Diego from July 24 to July 27 this year, so it is possible that Stargate: Continuum will be released at or around those days (possibly on one of the Tuesdays surrounding the event: July 22 or July 29).

Wright concluded, “There will always be Stargate films, that’s inevitable. We’re MGM’s number two franchise after James Bond, so it’s an important franchise and it’s growing still. I don’t see why we can’t do at least one movie a year.”
