Below is an excerpt from GALACTICA SITREP regarding the BSG TV Movie. I hope that (what I highlighted in bold below) means that Tyrol will be in the BSG tv movie. Fingers crossed.
Our sources indicate that in fact the first telemovie will focus mainly on three characters (think Cylons) and offers are on the table for those actors currently. Additional co-stars will depend on various actors availability. (As we’ve reported many are joining other series that are likely to be in production when the BSG film is being shot.) It’s expected that Edward James Olmos will appear in the film, since he’s also slated to direct it. SyFy Portal recently noted that David Weddle and Bradley Thompson were expected to write the film, however circumstances could change, especially if the current talks between SAG and the AMPTP over the new actors contract were to break down:
If a movie does come into being, the first one will be penned by Weddle and Thompson, who also [wrote] the mid-season premiere [Sometimes A Great Notion] that airs in early 2009.
“It would go back into history to tell part of the story that has never been told,” Weddle said [of the telemovie]. “We have very definite ideas of what that story would be. I think it will be very cool and fans will really like it. It won’t add any new chapters, but it will enrich their sense of depth and texture.”
