Wait. OUR Teal'c?

First trailer for ‘GOD OF WAR: SONS OF SPARTA’ The game releases TODAY.

All of your burning Stargate questions...deftly sidestepped! The news broke last week and the response has been huge. Not bad for a franchise that aired it’s last episode 14 year ago. The fans, of course, had a lot to say. There was excitement, jubilation, relief, cautious optimism, certain trepidation and, naturally, questions. Lots and lots of questions. Where will the series shoot? Will we see any familiar faces? Are we going to find out what happened to Destiny and Atlantis? Does the Goa’uld hand device work for left-handed people too? Well today, I’d like to address these questions by telling you I am unable to address any of these questions. For a few reasons. First, word of the new series just broke last week and I’d like to allow the revelation to settle for a little while. Savor the news as one would the decanted essence of a 2011 Leroy Musigny Grand Cru, that peacock-tail of purple flowers, rose petals, and wild strawberry kawooshing across the tongue and disintegrating on the palette like the third shot from a zat. Let’s appreciate the enlightening fullness of the moment. Second, there will be plenty to reveal, and this is something series creator Martin Gero very much wants to do…in time. We have a long runway between now and the premiere, so rather than front load all the details off the top, I think it makes more sense to reveal information over time in a consistent and gradual build as we progress through prep, production and post. As Martin said, he doesn’t just want to make this announcement and then go dark for months on end. He wants the fans to be informed in a way that makes them feel like they are part of the process in as close to real time as possible. Third, this is Martin Gero’s show, both literally and figuratively, so he’s going to be leading the charge here. He’s earned that right – and also is in the best position to coordinate with Amazon and the various media outlets. Of course that’s not to say you can’t rely on me for my trademark behind-the-scenes photos, videos and insights on everything from writers’ room lunches and wardrobe fitting mishaps to disoriented accounts of getting lost in the woods during location scouts or reports of anxious producers visiting set for the first time and inadvertently walking off the edge of a ship set to face plant on the studio floor while main unit is rolling in the adjacent infirmary set. All good stuff that we will get to. Eventually. Fourth, we’re in the very early stages, so there’s not a huge amount to reveal that I wouldn’t classify as spoilers. But as things ramp up, I guarantee that more information will be made available in an increasingly fast and furious pace. You will be one of the most dialed-in fandoms in sci-fi history. Fifth, I honestly have no idea whether or not a Goa’uld hand device works for left-handed people too? I mean, I assume it does. Why wouldn’t it? What do you think?
