In a reminiscence piece for The Hollywood Reporter today, Tim Allen looks back on his relationship with Alan Rickman, calling the late actor “an amazing person†and describing him as “gentle and funny and wonderful.â€
Mr Allen then went on to say, “Galaxy Quest is really close to being resurrected in a very creative way. It’s closer than I can tell you but I can’t say more than that. The real kicker is that Alan now has to be left out.â€
Entertainment Weekly first reported last August that Amazon Studios had ordered a series based on the film Galaxy Quest, which starred Mr Allen, Mr Rickman, Sigourney Weaver, Tony Shalhoub, and Sam Rockwell. While up until now it had been unclear whether or not any of the actors would be involved in any way, the original director, the original writer, and the original producers were all signed on.
In Galaxy Quest, Mr Rickman played actor Alexander Dane, whose character Dr Lazarus was known for his catch phrase “By Grabthar’s hammer, by the suns of Warvan, you shall be avenged!â€
