Overview
- Variety reported that Amazon has canceled the newly ordered Stargate TV series that was announced with a series order in November 2025.
- Martin Gero was attached as writer, showrunner and executive producer and is known for early writing work on Stargate SG-1 and Stargate: Atlantis.
- Reporting attributes the cancellation to unnamed Amazon executives who were reportedly worried Gero’s approach would not attract viewers beyond the franchise’s existing fanbase.
- There have been no widely reported official statements from Amazon or from Gero and outlets describe the situation as a developing story based on anonymous sourcing.
- Amazon still owns the rights through its MGM acquisition and producers including Joby Harold, Tory Tunnell, Dean Devlin and Roland Emmerich were tied to the project, leaving open the possibility of other franchise plans.
