Cameras roll in June, and Serenity is due in
2005. Full details from Variety
magazine, probably the single most reliable
source for this kind of news.

Firefly DVD set has been nominated for a Saturn in the “Best DVD Television Release”
category. Saturns are awarded by the Academy of
Science Fiction, Fantasy and Horror Films. Membership
is only $40 for an out of state membership – i wonder
if there is time to vote :o) That link also has
a complete list of nominations. If I were a betting
man, I’d bet on X2, LOTR:ROTK,
28 Days Later, Kill Bill Vol. 1,
Finding Nemo, Viggo Mortenson, Jennifer
Connelly, Andy Serkis, Keira Knightley, (don’t know
for the child actors), Peter Jackson, the
LOTR:ROTK team, Howard Shore (although I
prefer Danny Elfman’s work), Ngila Dickson and
Richard Taylor, Rick Baker’s team, and the LOTR team
for effects. As for the TV nominations, I don’t
watch enough to feel comfortable voting in all
categories, but I think Alexis Denisof deserves to
win. He’s done fantastic work.

want to know…

There’s nothing else to the Universal site, but it’s hopeful to see “Serenity” listed.

The details are up at Cinescape.
In short, while there is no official announcement,
there is mounting evidence to suggest that a
Firefly movie titled Serenity will
start filming in May.

Sci-Fi Wire has the full article. Basically, he hints at what plot threads will be addressed in the film.

A brothel on yet another goram rock in space is in a heap o’ trouble, and Mal and the crew ride on in to help’em out. This is the last of the so-called “lost” episodes of Firefly, not broadcast in the show’s original run. Not since “The Train Job” has the show taken its western elements so literally and, while its not the strongest episode, it works a lot better than that Fox-ordered second pilot. If you missed it on Space, you can find it on the DVD.

Space has broadcast the second of the “lost” episodes of Firefly, previously unaired in North America. It follows immediately from “Trash,” and is one of the show’s strongest eps. Expect to find it on the DVD.
