Alien Nation Reboot!!!!
An update of the cult hit Alien Nation is once again being developed for film.
Iron Man writers Art Marcum and Matt Holloway are writing the script for the project, although there is almost no one else officially attached to the project.
The project, based on a film and TV franchise from the '80s, centers on the uneasy relatinonships between humans and aliens who are forced to co-exist while humanity strips the stranded interstellar travelers of basic rights.
Mandy Patinkin played the first alien officer, while James Caan was his partner -- surly and racist, but ultimatly one who would come to accept and work with Patinkin's character. You can see echoes of this relationship in Almost Human years later.
The Hollywood Reporter says that the franchise is being developed to be tonally and presentationaly similar to the recent Planet of the Apes reboot and that the first installment will deal with how the aliens got here.
I am SO HAPPY!!! Maby I will finally get some Alien Nation figures out of this. I would be happy to get ReAction figures at least. Then all I will need is ReAction Classic POTA and I will have my Ape Nation yet!!!
