Amazon's Stargate series is officially no more.

Per Variety, despite the series order last November, Amazon is no longer moving forward with the project, as the studio executives were reportedly concerned about it only appealing to diehard fans. While this iteration of Stargate has ended, Amazon is still interested in finding ways to continue the franchise.

Reports of what became Gero's Stargate series started in 2022, after Amazon acquired MGM Studios. Dean Devlin, who co-wrote the 1994 Stargate movie with Emmerich, was also an executive producer for the Amazon show, as were Joby Harold and Tory Tunnell via Safehouse Pictures. The project also had Brad Wright and Joe Mallozzi as consulting producers, with both of having had extensive history working within the Stargate franchise.
