Summary
- Amazon cancelled a new Stargate series announced in November 2025.
- Concerns about broad appeal beyond the fanbase led to the cancellation.
- Amazon is still exploring new ways to develop the Stargate franchise.
Amazon has axed a new "Stargate" television series that was ordered in November 2025. The show was developed by writer and executive producer Martin Gero, who had prior experience with the franchise.
Sources indicate that Amazon executives expressed concerns regarding the series' potential appeal, believing it might only resonate with the existing dedicated "Stargate" fanbase. This concern contributed to the decision to cancel the project.
Despite the cancellation of Gero's series, Amazon remains committed to the "Stargate" franchise. The company is actively exploring new opportunities to expand the universe, suggesting that future projects may still be on the horizon. No plot details were ever released for the cancelled series.
The "Stargate" franchise began with a 1994 film and has since spawned multiple successful television series, including "Stargate SG-1" and "Stargate Atlantis," along with several direct-to-video movies and other TV shows.
