The MediasharX website published a report last week that the working title for a proposed BABYLON 5 theatrical movie -- rumored to be quietly in the early stages of development -- is titled BABYLON 5: THE MEMORY OF SHADOWS. Accordint to MediasharX's scooper, B5 series creator J. Michael Straczynski "revealed" the title; precisely where or when was left unsaid by the scooper. Furthermore, the scooper also added that the recent death of actor Richard Biggs, who played Dr. Stephen Franklin on the science fiction series, meant that the screenplay for the movie had to be rewritten.

MediasharX contacted Straczynski about the veracity of their rumor but had received no reply.

Fans of the groundbreaking five-year series have been tantalized by several posts left by Straczynski to Usenet's B5 discussion group which hint that something is happening. One post by the man himself (dated January 29) does indeed mention a project called "B5: TMoS"...which, coincidentally or not, corresponds to MediasharX's report that the new B5 project is titled THE MEMORY OF SHADOWS.
