David Eick Renews First-Look Deal With NBC

Battlestar Galactica executive producer David Eick has renewed his first-look deal at NBC Universal even as he continues expanding his development roster to non-NBCU properties, Variety reported. Eick, who this spring is shepherding the NBC reimagining of The Bionic Woman and the Fox thriller Them, has set up a pair of projects at F/X. One, a drama script, reteams him with Battlestar partner Ronald D. Moore. He’s also in talks to produce a miniseries for Lifetime. At SCI FI Channel, Eick continues working with Moore on Caprica, the potential Battlestar prequel spinoff, from writer Remi Aubuchon. He’s also teamed with Matt Cirulnick to develop the SCI FI miniseries about the end of days. SCI FI recently renewed Battlestar for a fourth season.
