What’s Next For Stargate
In 2016, news broke that Devlin and Emmerich were working together on a trilogy of movies rebooting the Stargate franchise. Speaking to ComicBook.com in 2020, Emmerich offered an update, saying the path forward on those films was no longer clear. Last year, news broke that Amazon was considering a new Stargate series, though there haven’t been any significant updates since then.
The Stargate franchise began with the 1994 film, and expanded into several TV series, including Stargate SG-1 (1997-2007), Stargate Atlantis (2004-2009), and Stargate Universe (2009-2011). There were also two direct-to-DVD movies, Stargate: The Ark of Truth and Stargate: Continuum. In 2018, a digital series dubbed Stargate Origins launched as a prequel that focused on on a young Catherine Langford.
Film Synopsis: “In modern-day Egypt, professor Daniel Jackson (James Spader) teams up with retired Army Col. Jack O’Neil (Kurt Russell) to unlock the code of an interstellar gateway to an ancient Egypt-like world. They arrive on a planet ruled by the despotic Ra (Jaye Davidson), who holds the key to the Earth travelers’ safe return. Now, in order to escape from their intergalactic purgatory, Jackson and O’Neil must convince the planet’s people that Ra must be overthrown.”
