Galaxy Quest Series By Chelsea SteinerMar 7th, 2021, 5:44 pm By Grabthar’s Hammer, are we finally getting a Galaxy Quest television series?! According to the film’s star Sigourney Weaver, the team behind the beloved 1999 science fiction comedy is still working on bringing Galaxy Quest back as a series. Several years ago, Amazon was looking to make a sequel series to the film, but paused development due to the tragic death of actor Alan Rickman in 2016. Weaver discussed new plans for the series in an interview with Collider, saying “It was about four years ago, Bob (Gordon, writer) and (producer) Mark Johnson and the whole group, started to develop a series. We lost the wonderful Alan [Rickman] unexpectedly, so that was put in mothballs, but I think they are finally now reviving it.”
