We are VERY pleased that today, on what would’ve been “Star Trek” creator Gene Roddenberry‘s 100th birthday, news of an official biopic hit. The Great Bird of the Galaxy is an important figure in American pop culture and science fiction, his creation remains one of the touchstones of inspiration. Infinite diversity in infinite combinations leading way to an idealized future where peace and understanding were the name of the game.
Adam Mazer is reportedly tackling the script for the project, which is in the early phases of development.
Rod Roddenberry, son of Gene and Majel Barrett Roddenberry, and Trevor Roth are producing the project.
We’ll let you know what else we hear about this and other news.
