Firefly is a beloved series that was canceled after one season. Despite this, it’s become a cult classic. Fans have watched it for years, discussed the show in online forums, and have even cosplayed characters of Firefly for years. Fans have longed for a revival of the show. Could it now be happening that Disney owns the rights to Firefly?
According to a rumor reported by LRMonline, which they got from GiantFreakingRobot; Disney is planning to reboot Firefly for a Disney+ series:
“My source tells me that Disney is in early development on a Firefly reboot. The new show would start the story of Captain Mal Reynolds and his crew aboard the Serenity over from scratch, with an aim to make this a long-running series on Disney+. There is a twist here and the twist is that they see the show as ideal family-friendly programming for Disney+. My source tells me they’re planning to target it more at a PG-adventure, family audience and less at the sort of PG-13 dynamic the original Joss Whedon show went for.”
This is just a rumor, so take it with a grain of salt. If the show did come back as a reboot, would you watch it? Or would you prefer the original cast?
