Comic-Con Red Carpet with Richard Hatch of the ‘Battlestar Galactica’ Series
ByMeeting Richard Hatch has always been a sort of dream of mine. Not necessarily because he played Captain Apollo in the original Battlestar Galactica or because he played Tom Zerik in the new BSG, but more because he’s incredibly passionate about the franchise. In many ways, Hatch is as big of a fan as we all are, he just had the pleasure and the privilege of being involved in such wonderful projects.
That being said, no one is a bigger advocate of Battlestar’s continued success than Richard Hatch. He really wants more people to watch the series, more movies to come of it and even more spinoffs and reboots. We talked to him for quite a while about a potential reboot of the original and whether or not he’d be involved. What would a reboot look like? Where do you draw the line? Where’s the appeal for new audiences?
Hatch is a very commanding speaker. He doesn’t captivate like Edward James Olmos (or as John Kubicek likes to call him: EJO) but he certainly garners your respect and attention. Check out the interview below to see what I mean and pick up some little tidbits about the future of the Battlestar franchise.
