Animated "Firefly" is coming...I'm not excited for this, just hire some new actors and get on with it...

Call it "Firefly Redux" or something...I predict for the animated version...

1. I'll never know, as my budget doesn't allow for Netflix

2. I understand about budget limitations, I predict this "reboot" will suck anyway so you won't miss much...

3. I have Firefly on DVD I'll manage

6. Fyi, the streaming service has yet to be decided

The news stories I've read mentioned that the series is in development, but that the distribution is still tbd. I.e. no deals have been signed yet with Netflix or anyone else.

From 3/17/2026:

At the moment, the revival still does not have a confirmed network or streaming home, which means it remains in development rather than fully greenlit for release. In other words, the announcement is real, but the next stage will be finding a platform willing to officially send Firefly back into the air.

4. Pass

It was an awesome show in its time, and we got a movie too. Let it be enough. I own the series and enjoy rewatching it, but you can't go back.

5. I generally hate animation. I'll rewatch the human "Firefly".
