Galaxy Quest TV Show in the Works at Paramount+
If you’re a fan of the 1999 sci-fi comedy film “Galaxy Quest,” get ready for a treat. A TV show adaptation of the movie is in the works at Paramount+. Yes, after more than two decades, the hilarious crew of the NSEA Protector may return to your screens once again.
The show will feature a new cast of actors, but the original film’s writer, Robert Gordon, is attached to the project as an executive producer. This means the tone and humor of the series will likely be similar to the beloved movie. However, no further details about the plot have been revealed yet.
For the uninitiated, “Galaxy Quest” follows a group of actors from a cult sci-fi TV show who get abducted by real-life aliens who mistake them for actual space explorers. The film pokes fun at the conventions of the genre while also paying homage to its dedicated fanbase.
Many fans have been eagerly waiting for a sequel to the movie but have been left disappointed due to legal issues and the passing of one of the film’s stars, Alan Rickman, in 2016. This TV adaptation may not be what they were hoping for, but it is sure to bring back fond memories of the original comedy.
The fact that the Galaxy Quest TV show is in development is exciting for fans of the movie and for anyone who loves sci-fi comedies. The show may introduce a new generation to the adventures of the NSEA Protector crew, or it may provide a fresh take on the quirky characters and situations from the film. Either way, it’s an exciting development that’s worth keeping an eye on.
