It seems that TV shows are never truly dead anymore, and the latest evidence of that fact is Deadline‘s surprising report that the former Syfy series “Sanctuary” is coming back to life.
Created by Damian Kindler, “Sanctuary” premiered on the Syfy Channel back in 2008 and it ran for four seasons up until 2011. Almost ten years later, it’s getting a fresh reboot.
Deadline reports, “Executive producer Martin Wood and All Canadian Entertainment have inked a deal with original rights holders Beedie to start development on new installments.”
The site adds that Amanda Tapping is in talks to return as Dr. Helen Magnus.
“First spawned as a web series focusing on the semi-secret world of so-called Abnormals, Sanctuary weaved in and out of modern history, with Tapping’s Dr. Magnus trying to protect and preserve the superpowered and save the world a few times.”
“Sanctuary was truly a show that wasn’t afraid to push beyond the edges, both in terms of storytelling and visual innovation,” Wood told Deadline. “With the technology that’s available today, we look forward to further continuing to push onwards, trailblazing and making monsters.”
