From an article that I read:
"More 'Battlestar Galactica' TV movies to come?
May 16, 2008

There's big news on the "Battlestar Galactica" front.

There will be another set of Webisodes that will link the first 10 episodes of Season 4 and the second half of the fourth and finale season.

Even bigger news: More "Battlestar Galactica" TV movies may get made.

As Galactica Sitrep noted Thursday, an internet radio show, The Doctor and Mrs. Who, reported last night that up to three Battlestar Galactica TV movies may get made later this year. Several sources at the show confirm that those films are indeed being discussed right now."

A new BSG movie has now been confirmed. It will be written by Jane Espenson and directed by Edward James Olmos:

Sci Fi releases first details of stand-alone two-hour movie that will be premiere after the series concludes.

While all Battlestar Galactica fans knew another stand-alone movie was coming down the pipeline, nothing was ever made official. Well, now it is.



Finally, someplace there isn't a Starbuck(s).
Sci Fi Channel today announced "an all-new Battlestar Galactica special event" (fancy talk for telemovie) that's set to air in 2009 after the fourth and final season of BSG concludes. Like Razor, a previous Battlestar movie, it will be released on DVD shortly after it airs.

The two-hour flick will be written by Jane Espenson and directed by actor Edward James Olmos, who plays Bill Adama. However, Olmos may only be behind the camera; currently the only cast members announced for the film are Michael Trucco (Sam Anders), Aaron Douglas (Chief Galen Tyrol), and Dean Stockwell (Brother Cavil).

The "event" will take place just before the events of the miniseries that started everything off. According to Sci-Fi, the unnamed movie will show the aftermath of the destruction of Caprica and concentrate on two Cylon agents trying to clean up the mess after human spaceships manage to escape.

The Chicago Tribune asked Sci Fi head of original programming Mark Stern about the possibilities of more cast members joining the project, and naturally, it all comes down to money.

"The cast are lovely," Stern told the paper. "That's not to say we're not getting phone calls from their agents saying, 'They're huge now.' And we're respectful of that. We're not expecting anyone to do it because they owe us. There are actors that have come to some prominence; they're helping us out because they want to do it."

No Six? No Starbuck? No Sharon? No Adama? No worries--it's Battlestar...it will still be brilliant. Agree?"
