Stargate Offworld (32K French Gaters on Facebook and 22K on Tiktok),
To the leadership of Amazon MGM Studios @AmazonMGMStudio ,
On June 2, 2026, you made a decision that was both painful and brutal: to cancel Martin Gero’s Stargate series outright. But what you shut down that day was also the hope of thousands of fans who had been waiting to finally see a new Stargate series, one that would continue the stories of the previous shows.
And yet, this project was not in its infancy. It had been commissioned, written, and prepared. Two years of work. Twenty weeks in the writers’ room. Pre-production already underway, with filming planned in the United Kingdom. All of it had been approved by you, Amazon MGM Studios. In a way, when you announced it, you made a commitment to the fans to deliver this new Stargate series.
But that commitment was not only made to the fans. It was also made to Martin Gero and his entire team, a team that knows this franchise, because it includes producers and writers from Stargate SG-1, Stargate Atlantis, and Stargate Universe.
The reason reportedly given for this cancellation was the fear that the series would appeal only to longtime fans, and that its audience would be too narrow. The creators themselves have challenged that idea. But beyond the numbers, there is something we want you to hear: a community should not be treated as an adjustment variable. A community deserves respect.
The Stargate community has been waiting for a continuation for more than 15 years. Imagine, for a moment, the emotional rollercoaster it has just been through. That is not fair to the fans. Many of us discovered science fiction through this Gate, and some of us have since passed that passion on to our own children. Turning your back on this audience is a mistake. Refusing even to listen to it would be a greater one.
But nothing is final.
In 2018, the cancellation of The Expanse sparked a worldwide fan movement, with close to 140,000 signatures and even a banner flown over your offices. That community, you chose to listen to. Jeff Bezos personally stepped in to save the series. What followed? Three more seasons, acclaimed by critics.
So why not listen again?
The decision lies with you, and you alone. Stargate belongs to you. No one else can carry this torch in your place. Everything now rests on your choice: a responsibility, certainly, but also an opportunity.
What do Stargate fans want?
We want Martin Gero and his team back, with their project. The work is already well advanced. All that remains is to restart the machine and follow the development plan that had already been laid out.
We do not want a reboot. We want the continuation of the adventures begun by Jack O’Neill, Daniel Jackson, Samantha Carter, and Teal’c, then carried on by John Sheppard’s team, and finally by the crew of the Destiny under Colonel Young. That is what Stargate is: memorable characters, humor, brotherhood, action, adventure, and the discovery of new worlds. It is not just a gate to adventure. It is a gate open to dreams.
Stargate fans, along with the new fans who will join this great family, deserve to dream through this wonderful franchise once again.
The Stargate community is strong. It lives on every continent. It is active on social media. And it will be there for the future of the franchise.
You have the symbols to dial in order to open this gate.
We are waiting for you.
Save Stargate.

I started watching SG-1 at age 15. I was the first in the family to start, but one by one they all joined me. Then one day, even my Dad joined. NOTHING on television held my Dad's interest. He never went to the movies. It was the first time I'd ever connected with him in this way. Not long after he started, he came home one day with the first season DVD box set, and the whole family started watching from the beginning. He kept buying the sets, until we caught up with the currently airing show, and then we watched like clockwork as a family every Friday night, with pizza and soda.
You have to understand, that is a CRAZY thing to type out about my Dad. He never did stuff like that. He was tough to connect with about something that wasn't mechanical or construction. I can't think of a single other fun thing he did with us that wasn't what a kid would consider "chores" or "work." My siblings and I treasured those Friday nights like nothing else. It was an entirely new experience, having something like that where he would quote the lines to you in the middle of the day (Teal'c lines were his favorite, especially the infamous "undomesticated equines" line).
My Dad has been buried for almost 8 years now. My oldest two kids barely remember him and the other two never met him. We recently watched both SG-1 and Atlantis as a family. It's been an emotional ride, sharing this with them yet wishing Grandpa was around to share it with them too. My kids ADORE Stargate. My girls have crushes on Daniel Jackson and John Sheppard. My youngest son wants to BE Jack O'neill. They cried when Daniel ascended the first time. They were over the MOON at the idea of a new series in the works to enjoy. I haven't had the heart to tell them the news that the whole thing has been called off.
Save Stargate!
Stargate SG-1 actor Michael Shanks is rallying fans to protest Amazon's shock cancellation of its previously-announced franchise revival. https://t.co/KccbeYMV7i
Why is STARGATE so important to me ? Well… 👇
Stargate is a show that I grew up with, it was a friend in need, it was a journey we as fans all went on together. I’m in my 30s now and Stargate is one of 3 shows I actively rewatch.
Stargate was optimistic about the future, it had good lessons, it was comedic, it was serious, it was FUN. It wasn’t doom and gloom like a lot of scifi these days. It was positive and hopful generally.
Stargate was was escapism, it had moments where you would have tears of laughter, moments you cried…. A lot.
Stargate was and IS a broad group of people. It would draw in those from both sides of the political isle (something in today’s environment that is quite an achievement for a show) and managed to toe the line between gun hoe action or simple a story in a room. An entire episode. Just in a room. Picking apart a character. It really and truly was. Something for everyone. The showrunners loved that show! We trusted them!
The journey we all went on with Stargate was there in the hard times. I’m sure we’ve all had those moments. It was that little flicker of joy in what might’ve been a pit of despair.
Stargate isn’t the only show to do this, but Stargate did it well. For a LONG LONG time.
The franchises fans gave a lot of goodwill to this project. Something unheard of in today’s climate. The creators were on board. The ex actors seemingly looked exited about it too.
The way this got canceled was confusing. It just doesn’t make sense. Other than miscalculation or this is part of a modern strategy for marketing to get hype built up and get people talking. I don’t know lol.
So yeah, Stargate means a lot to us fans who are super fans of it, but we also aren’t the only ones. Many people are discovering Stargate and enjoying it just as we did. To see that be curbed and stopped. That’s sad.
This franchise doesn’t deserve to end. It deserves the life we literally just had.
I hope we can get this one over the line. I truly do.
Dial the gate. Just one last time @AmazonMGMStudio let them try for a season. If it doesn’t work out. It doesn’t. But let them try.

If Amazon were saying they'd never make Stargate ever, at all, I'd agree with you. However, the Stargate we were getting was by the original authors of the show with support from the original actors. Believing that Amazon is just gonna let Stargate whither and collect dust on the shelf is wishful thinking. Due to this cancellation, now, instead of an attempt at a faithful sequel, they are going to make a souless reboot for modern audiences in the vein of Starfleet Academy by Kurtzman. Full stop.
Imagine owning an IP with generations of fans, only to scrap plans because its made for the fans
Stargate Atlantis was a continuation, but also a stepping on point for new viewers to start watching. This show would have been as well

Stargate fans.
Amazon has some slush email boxes you can respectfully write to with your concerns about the new Stargate. Tell them you want this show to be made:
[email protected][email protected][email protected]
Spread the word!
As the dust settles on Amazon's shock decision to scrap its in-development Stargate revival series, its consulting producer has disputed a claim that the show would not have appealed to a broad enough audience. https://t.co/N38agTuITC
I’m gonna simply say this: if you are at all interested in a Stargate show with ANY of the original creators/performers involved, now is the time to say something. Otherwise it really will be the end of that chapter forever. Let them know you are THERE
We are in shock. Again. We know you are, too. Please join Jenny, Darren and David LIVE as we parse through the decision that was made, reflect on what was about to be, and discuss our [constructive] approach moving forward.

Since Amazon MGM Studios won't even read an email from a dedicated Stargate fan ('unsolicited submission materials'), which must be bad for business, here's the full content of the email (subject is the axing of Stargate):
Dear Amazon Studios Leadership,
I am writing as a longtime Stargate fan to express my deep disappointment at the cancellation of Martin Gero’s new Stargate series and to ask that you reconsider.
Stargate SG-1, Atlantis, and Universe ran for seventeen seasons and built one of the most loyal fanbases in science fiction television. I have been part of that audience for years. I buy Prime Video subscriptions. I watch Amazon originals. I am exactly the viewer you are trying to reach.
The reported reason for the cancellation — that the show was too focused on existing fans — misunderstands how franchise revivals work. You do not build a new audience by abandoning the existing one. You build it by honoring the existing audience first and using their enthusiasm to bring new viewers in alongside them. That is precisely what Martin Gero, Brad Wright, and Joe Mallozzi were doing.
Please restore the Gero Stargate project, or at minimum commit to a revival that respects the franchise’s seventeen seasons of canon and brings back the creative team that built it.
The gate is ready to open again. Please let it.
Thank you for your time. @AmazonMGMStudio@BaronDestructo@MichaelShanks@GateWorld@dial_the_gate@fandompulse@disparutoo

Content de voir que la France atteint l'objectif de 100% de signatures pour la préservation du jeu vidéo sur la pétition européenne que je vous avais partagé il y a quelques mois "Stop à la Destruction des jeux vidéo"
➡️https://t.co/USMgJ0WoDC
Certes, les 1 millions de signatures ne sont pas atteintes mais avec plus de 521 000 c'est déjà l'une des plus grandes des pétition existante sur le site actuellement 💪 Pour son créateur Ross Scott c'est pas suffisant, et on peut le comprendre, mais il y a quand même des éléments positifs à en tirer.
8 pays ont déjà atteint les 100% dans tous les cas, ce qui est vraiment intéressant. Il y a un véritable enjeu et cri de la part des joueurs pour que le JV puisse avoir une vraie "fin de vie" et ne disparaisse pas dans les méandres de la culture.
Il reste quelques jours pour la signer. Je ne sais pas si cela aboutira à quelque chose malgré tout, mais au moins la question montre qu'elle mérite d'être étudié au maximum.
