British sci-fi legend 'Blake's 7' may be getting a reboot treatment. According to reports from Deadline, a new series based on the classic show is currently in development with The Last of Us director Peter Hoar at the helm.
No network has been attached to the project yet, but fans of the original series are eagerly awaiting news of its return. First introduced in 1978, 'Blake's 7' followed the adventures of a group of rebels as they fought against the evil Terran Federation in the 25th century.
The show was known for its blend of science fiction and social commentary, tackling issues such as racism, sexism, and politics. It gained a cult following during its initial run and has since become a staple of British sci-fi history.
While details on the reboot are scarce, fans can look forward to seeing their favorite characters back on screen. Peter Hoar's experience directing The Last of Us suggests that he is well-equipped to handle complex storytelling and character development, which could bode well for the revival of 'Blake's 7'.
As with any new adaptation, there will likely be some changes made to the original material. However, if done correctly, a reboot of 'Blake's 7' could potentially bring the show back to its former glory and introduce it to a new generation of fans.
In other news, Holly Hunter revealed that she begins recording lines for The Incredibles 3 this March. She expressed excitement about working on the film again, citing her long-standing partnership with director Brad Bird as one of the reasons why.
Meanwhile, Jason Momoa has expressed his enthusiasm for playing Lobo in Supergirl. He described the character as "amazing" and stated that it was his ultimate dream to play him. With Momoa on board, fans are eagerly anticipating the show's return.
The upcoming season of A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms also promises to be filled with excitement, thanks to a new trailer released by HBO. The show is set in the world of Game of Thrones and follows a young knight as he navigates treacherous landscapes and battles formidable foes.
Finally, fans of Primal can look forward to an intense showdown between Spear and a horde of cave-dwelling homunculi in next week's episode.
