Jac Schaeffer is developing a new “Stargate” TV series for Amazon MGM Studios, Variety has learned exclusively from sources.
The project falls under Schaeffer’s overall deal with Amazon MGM, which was announced earlier this year. According to sources, a writers’ room is expected to open in the near future. Along with Schaeffer, Joby Harold and Tory Tunnell for Safehouse Pictures will executive produce the project.
Reps for Amazon and Schaeffer declined to comment.
This will be Amazon’s second attempt at a new “Stargate” series. It was previously reported that Martin Gero was working on a new TV entry in the sci-fi franchise, but that project ultimately did not move forward.
She is repped by Curate, CAA, and attorney Erik Hyman.
