Babylon 5 - The Lost Tales DVD Anthology!

Today, JMS (The Creator of Babylon 5) announced that principal photography on “Babylon 5: The Lost Tales” has now completed..

JMS writes:

As I write this, we have finished principal photography on “Babylon 5: The Lost Tales,” coming in under budget and finishing a full day ahead of schedule.

This first DVD, entitled “Voices in the Dark,” covers the same 72 hour period of time as Sheridan travels on board a Presidential Cruiser en route to Babylon 5 from Minbar for a celebration marking the 10th anniversary of the founding of the Interstellar Alliance. One part of the story follows Sheridan as he picks up an unexpected visitor on the edge of Centauri space, Prince Regent Dius Vintari, and a warning about what will come afterward delivered by the techno-mage, Galen. The other part of the story is set aboard Babylon 5, as Colonel Lochley summons a priest from Earth space to deal with a problem that may have dark supernatural overtones. The two parts of the greater story intersect at certain key plot and thematic points, so that they overlap and complement each other while telling separate, but simultaneous, stories.

I am completely stoked. There’s been quite a few tries at bringing the Babylon 5 franchise back but I’m happy it’s finally happened..

Hopefully the sales will be decent so that they can continue or be optioned for an actual new series…
