Live-action Star Wars should use the Battlestar Galactica reboot template

  • The early 2000s reboot of Battlestar Galactica would could offer a serious template for bringing the Stars Wars world into a live-action TV setting. “The Star Wars franchise absolutely should try to figure out how to make its world support more than the same few kinds of lightsaber-heavy adventure stories that define the films,” says Phil Hornshaw. “That means leaning into stories like the ones Battlestar Galactica told in its reimagining, and finding out what the world of Star Wars really looks like to the people who live there. The franchise has long concerned itself with war, heroes and good and evil, but it’s done a bad job of ever showing people grappling with real life in its galaxy.”
