Stargate is coming back to TV, thanks to Prime Video<p>Disney+ has Star Wars and Paramount+ has Star Trek, so it's about time Amazon gets its own sci-fi franchise with "star" in the title. Prime Video has just greenlit a TV revival of the iconic Stargate franchise, <a data-i13n="cpos:1;pos:1" href="

according to a report by Deadline[/url]. This will be the fourth major TV show in the series, following the first movie.</p>
<p>We don't know anything about the plot and where it fits into the decades-long mythology but we do know that the showrunner is Martin Gero. He's a veteran of the IP, having cut his teeth in the industry while working on
Stargate: Atlantis back in the early 2000s. He also created the show
Blindspot and was showrunner on the <a data-i13n="cpos:2;pos:1" href="

<p>Franchise creators Dean Devlin and Roland Emmerich are on board as executive producers, as are Brad Wright and Joe Mallozzi. That last duo were behind most of the Stargate TV projects, including the most recent live action show
Stargate Universe.</p>

<p>For the uninitiated, the Stargate franchise involves the titular Stargates. These are transportation devices created by ancient aliens that act as galaxy-spanning wormholes. It all started with a movie from 1994.</p>This article originally appeared on Engadget at
