Sounds like they'd go with Sheridan from the get-go, which probably is sensible, and there might be a different take on the conflict generally.  

 

Hope this comes about.  Some of the best sci-fi ever put on TV.

So I read several different articles.

 

I don't know if this will qualify as a reboot.  From what I  can tell it will be a telling of the Shadow War. 

 

B5 was the story about the last few years of B5s story with some events of the Shadow War spilling over onto them. 

 

I read several B5 universe novels and there was a lot happening that never touched on B5 at all.  My favorite was the Passing of the Technomages trilogy.  But the B5 universe has a LOT of room for more stories. 

 

Seeing Straczynski directly involved plus original cast members makes me hopeful.

 

The recent history of Hollywood just needing to "fix" everything they touch or turn it into a platform makes me very pessimistic.
