Steven Beck will direct a big screen adaptation of the popular sci-fi TV series Babylon 5. The movie, titled The Memory of Shadows, is intended for theatrical release and was written by series creator J. Michael Straczynski. Production Weekly reports that the project starts filming this April in the UK.

In "Shadows," the technology of the ancient and extinct Shadow race is being unleashed upon the galaxy by an unknown force, and Earthforce intelligence officer Diane Baker, whose brother was recently killed in a mysterious explosion, it out to find out who is behind the intergalactic conspiracy.

Joining her is Galen, a techno-mage who has been charged with keeping the technology out of the hands of those who would abuse it.

being the big time b5 fan that I am, I of course am very, very, very, very, very...did I mention very?...excited about this!

I suspect there with the cancelled TV series crusade, there was always a loose end that the b5 creator needed to tie up.

I hope Peter Woodward will reprise his role as Galen!

I remember this series, and I also remember the head of security looking alot like Bruce Willis.I think that was the only entertaining thing for me (me no scifi fan)
