I have no idea how this one passed me by.

As a huge fan of John Carpenter, Kurt Russell and Howard Hawks, The Thing is one of my favorite films. I have vague memories of rumblings about sequels and remakes, but I never knew that anything even remotely concrete was beginning to form. Well it turns out that a story is in place that sets the film before the events of John Carpenter’s film.

Producer Marc Abraham had this to say to Latino Review:

Seeing as how I can’t let Vic have all the fun posting, here’s something to look forward to:

“Battlestar Galactica” (BSG) creator Ronald D. Moore will remain with NBC as he just signed a two-year, seven-figure (NICE!) deal with Universal Media Studios.

He is staying with BSG through to it’s end, and is working on new projects as we speak. His mainstream work has always captured my sense of “impending dread” as I find myself engrossed in the darkness that he brings to the screen in BSG. I enjoy being depressed when it’s not my own life that’s depressing me!
