Amazon MGM Studios has officially greenlit a new adaptation of the iconic Stargate franchise. The upcoming series will be written and executive produced by Stargate veteran Martin Gero. Fans can stream the original film and spin-off shows on Prime Video to catch up.
Announcement Details
Amazon MGM Studios announced the development of a fresh take on the Stargate franchise, marking an exciting revival for the sci-fi series that debuted in 1994. The new project is a series adaptation, with details on its premise still emerging but building on the established lore of ancient alien gateways and interstellar exploration.
Creative Team
Leading the project is Martin Gero, a seasoned writer from the Stargate universe, who will pen the scripts and serve as an executive producer. Gero's prior involvement in the franchise brings authenticity and insider knowledge to the reboot.
Franchise Background
The Stargate saga began with the 1994 film directed by Roland Emmerich, introducing a portal to other worlds. It expanded into multiple TV series, including the long-running Stargate SG-1 from 1997 to 2007, which followed a team of explorers. Other spin-offs like Stargate Atlantis (2004–2009) and Stargate Universe (2009–2011) delved deeper into alien cultures and space adventures. Additional entries include the web series Stargate Origins (2018), the animated Stargate Infinity (2002–2003), and direct-to-video movies Stargate: The Ark of Truth and Stargate: Continuum (both 2008).
Viewing on Prime Video
All major Stargate titles are available to stream on Prime Video, allowing viewers to revisit the franchise ahead of the new series. This move positions Prime Video as a central hub for Stargate content.
The announcement aligns with Amazon's push into sci-fi entertainment, though no release date or casting details have been revealed yet.
