Calling back to its WB roots, The CW is creating a reboot of Roswell, which ran for three seasons, including two on the network's predecessor between 1999 and 2001. Like the original series, the reboot is to be based on Melissa Metz's Roswell High book series.
News of this reboot follows news of another high-profile sci-fi reboot, Steven Spielberg's Amazing Stories anthology series, which has been picked up by Apple.
