The Sci Fi Channel has given the green light for the two-hour pilot movie Caprica - the prequel to the revived, and quite popular, Battlestar Galactica.
“Battlestar Galactica” is concluding its 3½-year run with 20 final episodes this year. Its “Caprica” prequel begins production in Vancouver in the spring. Ronald D. Moore and David Eick, the exec producers of “Galactica,” will join with Universal Media Studios to work on “Caprica.” Rene Aubuchon will co-write the “Caprica” pilot with Moore, and Jeff Reiner will direct it. Casting begins soon.
The news was announced this week at the Sci Fi Channel’s upfront presentation in New York City. The Caprica series has been rumored for a couple of years now, so it is good to see it finally make its way to the small screen. At this time no cast members have been announced, but if it is a prequel to the Battlestar Galactica series, one would think some of the major characters (Boomer, oh please let it be Boomer) will appear. Here’s hoping it is good enough to spin off a series of its own that is as good as BSG became.

Did not expect to see this image this morning.

In a word - awesome. In a few words; the last supper reference is done rather well in that it both symbolizes the last season of the show, and potentially the end of all cylons, with several (Six included) looking to sacrifice herself (itself?) for the good of all. (click for larger image)

Check out the collection of Battlestar Galactica Minimates that arrive in stores this week to help celebrate the 30th anniversary of the original show. Not only do you get original scary cylons, there’s also Starbuck, Apollo, Muffit, and don’t forget Daggit.
Heh…Daggit…

What’s great about this collection is you can play with it alongside your new BSG figures (Starbuck vs. Starbuck) or Marvel and DC minimates. Not that I would know anything about that… really…
The new (and final) season of Battlestar Galactica kicks off soon, and thankfully it looks like we’ll make it through the year without an updated Daggit.
Heh…Daggit…

Hot on the heels of of Battlestar Galactica: Season Zero comes yet another BSG story that gives us bigger insight into the events leading up to the attack on Caprica.
Issue #1 of the new Battlestar Galactica: Origins comic book series explores the origins of Gaius Baltar and his life and loves that lead up to the second Cylon War. Fans of both Sci-Fi’s re-imagined Battlestar Galactica television series and Dynamite’s New Battlestar Galactica comic books series know Gaius Baltar as the brilliant computer scientist who unintentionally brought about the near-annihilation of the human species. Of course, where Gaius Baltar is found, that sexy cylon known as Six is sure to be close at hand, haunting and influencing his fear of discovery.
Considering Sci-Fi is ending Battlestar Galactica this year, Dynamite Entertainment could really rack up the bucks if they followed up next year with Battlestar Galactica: Season 5.
Take the jump for the two covers of the four issue series.
