A Reimagined “Babylon 5” Series is coming to The CW

A Reimagined “Babylon 5” Series is coming to The CW

September 29, 2021 by Summer Brooks 4 Comments

The news from Hollywood trades and social media that excited Babylon 5 fans: Warner Bros has approved more Babylon 5 for us, from the Creator himself.

To answer all the questions, yes, it’s true, Babylon 5 is in active development as a series for the CW. We have some serious fans over at the network, and they’re eager to see this show happen. I’m hip deep into writing the pilot now, and will be running the series upon pickup.

— J. Michael Straczynski (@straczynski) September 27, 2021

That JMS is currently writing the pilot, and this news had been kept under wraps since June thrills me. I also hope that since the CW is the new home, that means those rumored remastered versions of the original series will also soon be able to see the light of day (and cause the emptying consumers wallets).

      They are hiding for the moment. Lots of other work taking up more time than previously expected.

        Looking forward to it. It’s going to be wild to be able to hear everyone again, meet new people, and all while a show is AIRING. This is going to be wild.
