The new animated Babylon 5 movie gets a trailer

J. Michael Straczynski recently announced that there was a new Babylon 5 animated movie in development. Called Babylon 5: The Road Home, it will follow the character of John Sheridan on a cross-time caper.

Travel across the galaxy with John Sheridan as he unexpectedly finds himself transported through multiple timelines and alternate realities in a quest to find his way back home. Along the way he reunites with some familiar faces, while discovering cosmic new revelations about the history, purpose, and meaning of the Universe.

I loved the original show back in the 1990s so look forward to diving back into that universe.

Returning Babylon 5 cast includes Bruce Boxleitner as John Sheridan, Claudia Christian as Susan Ivanova, Peter Jurasik as Londo Mollari, Bill Mumy as Lennier, Tracy Scoggins as Elizabeth Lochley and Patricia Tallman as Lyta Alexander.

They are joined by Paul Guyet as Zathras and Jeffery Sinclair, Anthony Hansen as Michael Garibaldi, Mara Junot as Reporter and Computer Voice, Phil LaMarr as Dr. Stephen Franklin, Piotr Michael as David Sheridan, Andrew Morgado as G’Kar and Rebecca Riedy as Delenn.

Straczynski wrote the film and executive produces. Matt Peters (Batman and Superman: Battle of the Super Sons) directs, with Rick Morales serving as supervising producer. Sam Register is the executive producer on the project.

Warner Bros. Animation and Warner Bros. Discovery Home Entertainment are plotting a summer release for the new animated film.
