Hi, Everbody
For those who don't know, JMS is in the early stages of producing a new Babylon 5 movie for the BIG SCREEN titled "The Memory of Shadows". Diehard fans are concerned about a fact-based rumour that implies that old roles will be recast with NEW actors. A letter writing campaign has begun.

New actors in the old roles would be a travesty. B5 was the best crafted TV scifi series ever. JMS would be a fool to tamper with it.

It's being claimed that WB "suits" are trying to force JMS into recasting. We're just trying to aid him in his battle. Every letter helps !www.keepb5alive.com For more info !!!

JMS has been surprisingly quiet about this. It seems that, if this were false he could easily dismiss it, and if it's true, he is bound by the gag order.

Well JMS has stated in the past just how much he loathes re-casting a character (after Claudia Christian left B5), so you can bet he'll be fighting it with all he's got. What I do wonder is just how far he's willing to fight his producers nowadays, after losing Crusade to what was effectively a creative dispute.
