Starship Troopers is a franchise that has always been special to me, from it’s Heinlein legacy, to the legacy it created ( The SPARTAN armour in HALO probably wouldn’t exist without it), to the original movie and the awesome CG animated series. And now were are getting some more. At the recent Wondercon Sony announced that a direct to BLU RAY and DVD CG movie produced by Casper Van Dien and Ed Neumeier (star and writer of the original movie).
In the film, a distant Federation outpost Fort Casey comes under attack by bugs. The team on the fast attack ship Alesia is assigned to help the Starship John A. Warden stationed in Fort Casey evacuate along with the survivors and bring military intelligence safely back to Earth. Carl Jenkins, now ministry of Paranormal Warfare, takes the starship on a clandestine mission before its rendezvous with the Alesia and goes missing in the nebula. Now, the battle-hardened troopers are charged with a rescue mission that may lead to a much more sinister consequence than they ever could have imagined…
