A new Stargate television series is being developed at Amazon MGM Studios by Jac Schaeffer, the creator of WandaVision. Joby Harold and Tory Tunnell are also set as executive producers, and a writers room has begun in New York. This follows a prior Stargate reboot from Martin Gero that Prime Video ordered in late 2025 but later dropped.

Expanded Detail

WandaVision creator Jac Schaeffer is developing the project through her overall agreement with Amazon MGM Studios. Joby Harold and Tory Tunnell join as executive producers, and a writers room is already active in New York. Amazon declined to comment.

This marks Amazon's second attempt at reviving the franchise. Martin Gero's earlier reboot was ordered by Prime Video in November 2025 but shelved the following June, after a 20-week writers room and UK pre-production. Stargate was among the first MGM properties earmarked for adaptation after Amazon's $8.5 billion purchase in 2022. The original 1994 film, from Roland Emmerich and Dean Devlin, led to SG-1, Atlantis, Universe, and Infinity.
