Katee Sackhoff Created a New Sci-Fi Series that She'll Star In Called RAIN
Battlestar Galactica star Katee Sackhoff is set to star in a futuristic sci-fi drama that she created and wrote called Rain. This show sounds like it has serious potential, and it deals with some popular topics of discussion regarding the environment, the world we live in, and a fictional future that our current way of living could lead to.
According to Deadline, the show is an "evolutionary parable that gives us a look into our possible future as a species viewed through the eyes of a soldier named Rain (Sackhoff). It explores how the long-term effects of global warming, the burning of fossil fuels and the scientific manipulation of nature’s balance rot the world and contribute to its decline."
The series is being produced by Reunion Pictures, and producer Tom Rowe said this in a statement:
“With Rain, Katee has created a future world and a story that are compelling as both a sweeping vision and a very personal exploration of a civilization in harrowing decline by its own hand. She has written a great story and we are excited to be working with her.”
Sackhoff added:
“It’s great to be in business with Reunion and Thunderbird. Their credentials in the genre are outstanding and they share my vision in telling a story that means a lot to me.”
The actress currently co-stars in the drama Longmire, which is headed to Netflix. She was most recently seen in the awesome Joseph Khan-directed "Power/Rangers" short that took the Internet by storm last month. I'm excited to see how this next project of hers progresses.
