Two new Stargate movies on the way

Fri, 19 Jan 2007

MGM is extending its popular Stargate franchise with two new movies, Stargate: The Ark of Truth and Stargate: Continuum.

The first film will wrap up the current storyline concerning the Ori, and the second film will follow the SG-1 team as they "embark on new and exciting adventures" in the Stargate universe.

Stargate SG-1 is the longest-running science-fiction series in US TV history but was recently cancelled by the SCI FI Channel in the US despite being sold to 120 countries. However, the contract for Stargate Atlantis, a Stargate spin-off has been renewed.

"Stargate SG-1 is to MGM Television what the James Bond, Pink Panther and the Rocky franchises are to our feature film unit," said Charles Cohen, the senior executive VP of MGM. "We are committed to continuing to release new SG-1 content and its Stargate Atlantis spin-off, and we're also steadfast in our dedication to extending the franchise. Stargate is an indelible brand for MGM and we will support it well into the future."

Current cast members Ben Browder, Amanda Tapping, Christopher Judge, Claudia Black and Michael Shanks will star in both films and will be written and produced by Brad Wright and Robert Cooper.
