A new webisode series from the creator of Star Trek: New Voyages plans on injecting new life into a golden age outer space hero: Buck Rogers Begins.
Production has begun on a new live-action Buck Rogers series that will start off telling the origins of the character before his adventures in the post-apocalyptic world of the 25th century. While the action will take place in the early portion of the 20th century, the show's producers are striving to keep their bar raised high, giving the show a "retro-modern" look and feel with high production values and effects, solid acting and a modern day, serious approach to its stories. "We've got our Buck and some other key characters and are in talks with actors who have serious science fiction credentials to join the show," said executive producer James Cawley, the man who created the hit web-based Star Trek: New Voyages series.
