The Stargate Atlantis movie now has a finished script and a working title, executive producer and co-writer Joseph Mallozzi reported on his blog this week. Mallozzi teased fans that the movie title may be revealed over the weekend.
Today, this photo surfaced — at his dogs’ Twitter account, of all places!
The photo shows the on-screen title page of Stargate: Extinction. It’s the working title of the film, written by Mallozzi and Paul Mullie, who served as executive producers and show runners on the last two years of the television series.
The title is consistent with last year’s direct-to-DVD SG-1 movies, Stargate: The Ark of Truth and Stargate: Continuum — though it’s possible the studio may wish to keep “Atlantis” in the title to distinguish between the SG-1 and Atlantis films.
“It’s the working title,” Mallozzi added, “but I kind of like it because a) it’s story appropriate, b) a dynamic title, and most importantly c) not ‘Dark Gambit.'”
Stay tuned to GateWorld as the first Atlantis movie continues its way through the production pipe! Read more about it in GateWorld’s Movie guide.

haha! Check Ronon out in his new costume! I suppose his usual one was in the dry cleaners or getting a wash for the first time EVER during that photo shoot! Maybe the rest of the team, or City even can once and for all remove the nose-plugs! XD
Seriously tho'... This is awesome news tbh! At least we have a lot more hope now that there may Actually Be an SGA Movie afterall!! Awesome!
Thanks for the news Gateworld! And of course "Quade"! ;)
really works well as a title, though i think it should be Stargate Atlantis: Extinction though SG1 didnt get that treatment either.
This is terrific! Thank goodness we're hearing some news about this movie FINALLY!! Now we just need to know when they are going to shoot it and finally release it. My guess...late 2010.
I guess that seals the fate of the wraith...or the Asgard? =/
I'd never trust Mallozzi with a secret. Give him another couple of months and he'll have spoiled the entire movie.
Have any of the actors signed on yet?
I'm still a doubting thomas though, don’t believe much that comes out of the mouths of TPTB ;-(. But that said it is the best bit of news to date, at least its going in the right direction. Something positive since the demise of Stargate as series anyway.
But I wont believe it till the actors have confirmed they have been approached and or confirmed they are available.
In them my trust lies, certainly not JM or Wright/Cooper!!! After all we have had Spin and lies before.
Forget about what Ronan is wearing.... Look at Tayla!!!! HOT!!!!!!!
Where is this hot photo? I can't any new ones?!?! Are you on about the one with all of them in water?
I think Jim and I are both talking about the photo at the top of this News Post carrollwoman! lol. ;)
this is news i totally wanted to hear sooooooo lookin forward to the movie can't wait till the sc1 movie aswell
