SCI FI Channel Developing ‘Alien Nation’ Reboot

July 1, 2009 by tcgames

Looks like another fan-favorite franchise will get the reboot: SCI FI Channel is developing a new version of Alien Nation, which originated as a 1988 movie written by Rockne O’Bannon and was spun off as a TV show and a series of TV movies.

Tim Minear—the writer/producer known to fans for his work on Angel, Firefly and Wonderfalls, among others—is writing the new take on the franchise, about the arrival of a group of refugee aliens and their integration into Earth’s population, with the focus on a veteran police detective and his "newcomer" partner and family.
