'Galaxy Quest' TV series in works

"Galaxy Quest" has built up a cult following over the years, and it will now continue in a TV series.
Amazon Studios has picked up a small-screen version of the 1999 sci-fi comedy, according to Entertainment Weekly.
"Galaxy Quest" centred around the cast of a Star Trek-style TV series who suddenly find themselves having to pilot a real-life spaceship for a group of aliens who mistook their series for a genuine documentary.
It is yet to be confirmed whether any of the original cast will return or whether it might be a reboot. It's probably going to be difficult to bring back some of the big name cast, including Tim Allen, Sigourney Weaver, Alan Rickman and Sam Rockwell.

However, the film's co-writer Robert Gordon is back to write the script and to executive produce the pilot. Director Dean Parisot is also back, alongside producers Mark Johnson and Melissa Bernstein.
"Galaxy Quest" follows several other upcoming movie-to-TV adaptations including Limitless and Rush Hour on CBS and "Minority Report" on Fox.
