Ben Franklin: "Only a virtuous people are capable of freedom. As nations become corrupt, they have more need of masters." -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of Charles Sent: Thursday, September 25, 2003 4:12 PM To: 'The Sandbox Discussion List' Subject: [Sndbox] New "Lost in Space" TV Show Kevin Burns and Jon Jashni's Synthesis Entertainment is teaming with film director John Woo and writer Doug Petrie on a new TV version of the classic 1960s SF series Lost in Space, Variety reported. Regency and 20th Century Fox TV will produce the show, with Fox TV Studios-based Synthesis and Woo's Terence Chang-headed Lion Rock Productions, the trade paper reported. Synthesis, a company formed by Burns and Jashni to bring new life to the creations of Irwin Allen, last revived Lost in Space at NBC as a television movie; that project went away following the death of original star Jonathan Harris, the trade paper reported. Multiple networks have been pitched the project by packaging agency Endeavor, and network insiders said there's been strong response to the idea, the trade paper reported. New Line's recent Lost in Space movie opened well but ultimately tanked. The new TV Lost in Space will return the show to its roots as a family drama, which is what Allen intended when he penned the original pilot, the trade paper reported. Burns told Variety that the project will be set about 100 years in the future and will feature a relatable, contemporary family at its core.
