[davekill]

JMS is a man in constant motion between the new "Thor" movie, Superman and Wonder Woman DC comics and his work on reviving "Forbidden Planet".
There are now rumblings from Warner Bros. about another Babylon 5.

"Forbidden Planet!" shouted an excited fan, referencing Straczynski 's long in development movie. Straczynski said that particular project was still trying to find a director. At one point James Cameron was attached, but he left the project to focus on "Avatar 2."

On the subject of his comic projects, Straczynski said he is excited about "Superman: Earth One" and "Superman: Grounded," and that his "Wonder Woman" run continues to move forward.
"When I was first assigned 'Wonder Woman,'" said Straczynski, "one of the first things Geoff Johns said to me was, 'Don't go on the Internet. It's gonna be bad.' It's been interesting to watch the reaction."

...Then Straczynski dropped a bombshell.
"I said to Warner Bros. a while back, 'When you're ready to do something real with 'Babylon 5,' either a big-budget film or a TV show, if you want to do one of those two things, call me, otherwise don't bother me.' About a month ago the phone rang. I don't know where this is gonna go yet, but when they call you, there's something going on. I can't tell you what it is yet and it may not go anywhere, but there is movement in the tall grass." When asked later, Straczynski said no new "Babylon 5" comics were in the works.
