The 1999 cult sci-fi film makes another valiant run at a small screen adaptation.

arrive thinking them to be the real deal, the fictional crew of the NSEA Protector enters the intergalactic fray against the ruthless warlord Sarris who wants control of a weapon called the Omega 13, a mysterious device briefly referenced in the Galaxy Quest show.

Directed by Dean Parisot, this hilarious homage to sci-fi flicks and vintage outer space television programs of yesteryear was a certified fandom favorite, then and now, and starred Tim Allen, Sigourney Weaver, Alan Rickman, Tony Shaloub, Sam Rockwell, and Daryl Mitchell. Since the new TV series reportedly in development is still in the very early stages, no casting decisions or showrunner choices have been released. Mark Johnson, the original"Galaxy Quest" co-producer with Charles Newirth, is officially attached to this nostalgic project as executive producer so we'll have to see how it plays out.

By Grabthar's Hammer, we can only hope that Paramount Plus has better luck this time and that we'll soon be announcing more encouraging news of a"Galaxy Quest" TV series, so stay tuned!
