Battlestar Galactica to Get Prequel Series

Battlestar Galactica may be coming to an end, but where there’s a buck to be made, there’ll always be a spin-off. It looks like for Galactica, that spin-off will be called: Caprica, and it will feature Eric Stoltz (Mask, Pulp Fiction), Esai Morales (“La Bamba”), Paula Malcomson and Alessandra Toressani (‘’The Sarah Connor Chronicles”, ‘’Arrested Development”).

Originally, Caprica was set to be a TV Movie, but it has now been greenlit for a full series. Hopefully it will be more exciting than the current Sci Fi showcase, Sanctuary.

The series is a prequel to “Battlestar Galactica” and is set 50 years before the events in “Battlestar” on the home world of Caprica. Stoltz plays Daniel Graystone, a wealthy computer engineer who, after suffering a family tragedy, uses his technological prowess to change the future of Caprica.

The show is set to air some time in 2010
