Chevron seven locked.
After fourteen long years of waiting, rewatches, convention talk, and countless “When is Stargate coming back?” conversations, the impossible has finally happened: Amazon MGM Studios has officially greenlit a brand-new Stargate series for Prime Video. And the best part? It isn’t a reboot. It’s a completely new chapter in the existing Stargate universe, created with the very people who helped build it in the first place.
The announcement came straight from Darren Sumner of GateWorld and David Read of Dial the Gate, joined by franchise legends Brad Wright and Joe Mallozzi. Hearing them talk about the project was enough to make any longtime fan emotional. They emphasized again and again how rare it is for original creators to return to shepherd a new version of a show, and how grateful they are that Amazon chose to honor the legacy instead of reinventing it from scratch.
They also gave full credit to the fans. According to the team, the Stargate community, fan sites, podcasters, cosplayers, convention-goers, and everyone who kept rewatching the shows, played a direct role in keeping the franchise alive during its fourteen-year hiatus. The enthusiasm never faded, and that passion helped push this revival forward.
Even though this will be a brand-new story, the creators stressed that it will still feel unmistakably like Stargate. New viewers will be able to jump in without having to watch 350 episodes, but longtime fans will immediately recognize the tone, humor, and world they love. And with modern VFX and today’s production capabilities, the team says they can finally bring ideas to life that weren’t possible back in 1997.
As for familiar faces? They’re staying quiet… for now. But the way they dodged the question suggests there’s plenty more news to come.
For the first time, Stargate will debut globally on a platform where everyone around the world can share the experience together. No staggered release, no regional delays. Just one huge, united Stargate moment.
The creators promised that this is only the beginning, with more updates coming soon. After more than a decade of waiting, the gate is finally spinning up again.
Stargate is back. Indeed.
