... Excerpts from Babylon 5: The Road Home Exclusive: Sheridan's Visitor Looks Familiar:


All of that time, patience & support that Babylon 5 fans have shown is about to pay off in a very big way in less than ten days. That's when J. Michael Straczynski, Warner Bros. Animation & Warner Bros. Entertainment's upcoming animated return film, Babylon 5: The Road Home, officially blasts off. Continuing the storyline from the 1990s, the animated film offers fans the chance to travel across the galaxy with John Sheridan as he unexpectedly finds himself transported through multiple timelines and alternate realities in a quest to find his way back home. Along the way, he reunites with some familiar faces while discovering new cosmic revelations about the history, purpose, and meaning of the Universe. And in the following Bleeding Cool-exclusive clip, Sheridan gets a better appreciation for how alternate realities can have you running into anyone – including yourself.

Returning from the original series are Bruce Boxleitner as John Sheridan, Claudia Christian as Susan Ivanova, Peter Jurasik as Londo Mollari, Bill Mumy as Lennier, Tracy Scoggins as Elizabeth Lochley, and Patricia Tallman as Lyta Alexander. In addition, the animated feature also sees Paul Guyet as Zathras and Jeffery Sinclair, Anthony Hansen as Michael Garibaldi, Mara Junot as Reporter and Computer Voice, Phil LaMarr as Dr. Stephen Franklin, Piotr Michael as David Sheridan, Andrew Morgado as G'Kar, and Rebecca Riedy as Delenn. JMS penned the film and will executive produce, with Matt Peters (Batman and Superman: Battle of the Super Sons) directing. Rick Morales serves as supervising producer, with Sam Register serving as the executive producer on the Warner Bros. Animation & Warner Bros. Discovery Home Entertainment animated feature.



... Excerpts from Babylon 5 creator says future projects will continue to explore the multiverse:


Babylon 5: The Road Home is set to be something of a Babylon 5: No Way Home, with multiple timelines involved in the animated movie. Luckily, though, now that the exploits of Rick and Morty, Everything Everywhere All At Once, and both the Marvel and DC universes have brought multiverses into the mainstream, most modern viewers should be comfortable with The Road Home's exploration of quantum mechanics and parallel timelines.

According to creator J. Michael Straczynski, this burgeoning multiverse could continue to be explored in potential future projects, too.

"If this one does well, Warners want to do more," Straczynski tells SFX magazine in the new issue, which features The Road Home on the cover. "We start with Sheridan in his own timeline, but there's also an alternate timeline where we have Sinclair, Sheridan, Ivanova and Lochley side by side, and all the characters are in their youth and available to us.

"That would be the core for any [films] going forward," he continues. "It gives me the freedom to say, 'Alright, if I'm starting from zero and I have access to all the characters, what can happen next?' [Viewers familiar with the show] may know this universe and these characters, but now they don’t know what’s going to happen."

It's a cartoon & Sheridan is dead. So what's the point? Money grab!
