And to prove that this isn’t your typical U.S. TV series remake, word is that original star John Barrowman, who plays Captain Jack Harkness, may star in the U.S. version as well. Quite honestly it doesn’t seem like they’re remaking the series so much as they are continuing the story from the U.K. version.
My biggest worry with this adaptation is if they try to go for a full reboot, instead of continuing off of the original series’ narrative. Word is that they’re going to make the scale of the show more global than the U.K.-centric original, which makes it very easy to build on the original series.
Discuss: Torchwood fans sound off, is this a good idea or not? Would you rather they keep making more U.K. seasons? If you haven’t watched Torchwood before, would a U.S. remake seem more enticing to you?
