Is a new Stargate movie with Chris Evans happening?

Rumor has it that Chris Evans and Rami Malek will star in a new Stargate movie, with the remake set to hit cinemas in 2024 – but is it true? Here’s what we know.

The Stargate franchise began with 1994’s hit movie, directed by Independence Day’s Roland Emmerich and starring Kurt Russell. Three years later, it moved to the small screen with Stargate SG-1, a sequel series that ran for 10 seasons on Showtime and SyFy.

There have been other spinoffs: Stargate Atlantis, directly following SG-1’s ‘Lost City’ and ‘New Order’; Stargate Universe, a short-lived series following a brand-new cast led by Robert Carlyle; Stargate Origins, a limited web series revolving around a young Catherine Langford; and Stargate Infinity, an animated series that’s not considered canon.

However, there’s never been another movie – until now… apparently. So, is a Stargate remake with Chris Evans actually coming out this year?
