The Hollywood Reporter said Fox has greenlighted Virtuality, a two-hour back door pilot from Battlestar Galactica co-creator Ron Moore.
From the description released so far, the plot sounds very “Matrix-ish.” It’s about a spaceship called the Phaeton on a 10-year journey to a distant solar system. To help the crew members deal with a decade of having not much to do, the ship keeps them in virtual reality modules that allow them to do anything they want. Of course it wouldn’t be sci-fi if the machine worked properly and a “bug” causes things to go haywire.
Sci-Fi Channel’s parent network NBC passed on the project so Fox is taking a crack at it. The project is slated to begin in July.
