In an odd case of deja vu, it has been announced that big-name Hollywood director Brian Singer (of X-Men, Superman Returns, and Valkyrie fame) has signed up to direct a reimagining of the Battlestar Galactica series. The original television show, which ran for only one season back in 1978, was recently turned into the "thinking man's science fiction" show on Sci Fi, a critical hit with its US-Iraq allusions. This show ran its course and the series finale aired in May. There is no news on how (or if) this new movie will take anything or anyone from either two series that preceded it.
