reboot of the reboot coming

NBCUniversal's newly named streaming service, Peacock, is revisiting Battlestar Galactica with a new, straight-to-series take from Mr. Robot creator Sam Esmail, set as part of its initial content lineup. Peacock will also be the streaming home for Ron Moore's Syfy take on Battlestar Galactica.

Details about the new take on the beloved drama are being kept under wraps, though sources tell The Hollywood Reporter that it will be an updated, more modern look at the world as told through the lens of the sci-fi favorite. The updated Battlestar Galactica, sources say, will be inspired by Syfy's 2004 series, developed by Ron Moore, and not based on the 1978 original from creator Glen A. Larson

Any news ? Hopefully it stays in development hell, where it belongs.

As cheesy as the original series was, it's still considered a cult classic even after 1 season, however, not so much for GALACTICA 1980 excluding the episode titled "The Return of Starbuck"

First time hearing about this new reboot and I’m not looking forward to it since it will just be another super-woke show.

The 2004-2009 version was a good series.
