New Babylon 5 DVD Film Begins
Warner Home Video and Warner Brothers Television announced the start of production on Babylon 5: The Lost Tales, a made-for-video movie that will tell two new stories set in the B5 universe. WHV will be the home-entertainment distributor for the made-for-DVD release, which will include two new stories under the collective subtitle "Voices of the Dark" in one film, plus exclusive behind-the-scenes content.
The stories will be written and directed by executive producer and Babylon 5 creator J. Michael Straczynski. Executive producer Doug Netter also returns in that role. Actors from the original series that have signed on to participate in the project include Bruce Boxleitner (President John Sheridan), Tracy Scoggins (Capt. Elizabeth Lochley) and Peter Woodward (Galen).
The Lost Tales picks up several years after the events of the original Babylon 5 TV series and follows several of its major characters in new adventures set against the backdrop of the B5 universe. The movie will be released sometime in 2007.

The movie will be released sometime in 2007. It sure is! I've heard it from several sources - including JMS himself! He has his "JMSNews" and the production office has opened!! I quote (since I'm not SFX magazine ) : www.jmsnews.com/msg.aspx?ID=1-17615 "From: jmsatb5@aol.com Subject: Re: B5:TLT update from jms To: rec.arts.sf.tv.babylon5.moderated Date: 10/22/2006 10:46:51 PM Tomorrow morning at 9 a.m., the Babylon 5 TLT production offices in Vancouver will officially open up next door to the stage we're using. The crew has been hired, Chris Franke is on board for the music, cast deals have been set. Interesting times all around. jms" And the text you have seem to correspond to scifi.com (check out the link) www.scifi.com/scifiwire/index.php?id=38923 Well spotted Arbo! This is really good news. And we will all miss G'Kar dax

JMS just wrote this in his blog today - Bruce (yeah that's "my Bruce" LOL ;D) has just completed some shots in a Starfury! www.jmsnews.com/msg.aspx?id=1-17621 From: jmsatb5@aol.com Subject: Live from the B5 Set To: rec.arts.sf.tv.babylon5.moderated Date: 11/22/2006 4:53:50 PM Just a quick hello direct from the set of Babylon 5: The Lost Tales. It's 4:51 p.m. and we just finished lunch (crew call at 10 a.m. lunch at 4). Bruce Boxleitner just completed a series of shots in a Starfury, his first time back in the saddle. We're ahead of schedule and might actually wrap filming a day early. (It always goes faster if you don't actually put film in the camera.) We've introduced a new Centauri character -- Prince Regent Vintari, third from the throne -- a new ISN reporter played by Teryl Rothery, a priest played by Alan Scarfe, and a character who may have come too close to certain dark forces played by Bruce Ramsey. Part One of "Voices in the Dark" wrapped on Friday, and we should have part two done tomorrow, after a long sequence shooting in the hallway of a new Minbari Presidential Cruiser built for the Interstellar Alliance. jms --- Cool news, hey! dax
