'Galaxy Quest' TV Series Is In Development at Paramount+

A new show based on the 1999 cult-classic film Galaxy Quest is currently in development at Paramount+.

The original film was a spoof and parody of Star Trek and its fandom. Paramount+ is currently home to five original Star Trek series.

The original film starred Tim Allen, Sigourney Weaver, Alan Rickman, Tony Shalhoub, and Sam Rockwell.

Rickman, who also starred in Harry Potter, passed away in 2016 due to pancreatic cancer.

The proposed TV series was originally being developed with the original cast at Amazon in 2015, before Rickman passed away.

Galaxy Quest was the feature-film debut for both Justin Long and Rainn Wilson.

The new TV series is executive produced by the film’s producer Mark Johnson, per Deadline.

Galaxy Quest grossed over $90 million at the box office and gaining cult-classic status as it received support from many Star Trek actors and fans alike.

Paramount+ is also developing Star Trek: Section 31, an original movie in which the Everything Everywhere All at Once actress Michelle Yeoh will reprise her role as Emperor Philippa Georgiou, a character she first played in Star Trek: Discovery Season 1.
