GODZILLA---the reboot monster is on the cover of EMPIRE magazine. Premiere is May 16.
FARSCAPE---tv movie sequel underway to the sci fi series. Executive producer Justin Monjo is writing the script, "In the finale, the protagonists, American astronaut John Crichton (Ben Browder) and peacekeeper Aeryn Sun (Claudia Black) got married and had a baby.
In the movie, it’s revealed the boy had special powers which made him the target of the villainous aliens so his parents hide him on Earth.
The plot follows the kid at the age of 19 when his whereabouts have been discovered and he rejoins his parents on their spaceship."
Monjo is also developing an HBO series, THE BEASTS OF VALHALLA, based on the private detective novels featuring Dr. Robert Frederickson, "Mongo The Magnificent", with Peter Dinklage possibly starring.
