The Sci Fi Channel is continuing their run of turning old science fiction properties into hit shows ("Battlestar") with the upcoming "Flash Gordon." "Smallville" actor Eric Johnson will star as the titular role.
The show, a modern take on the old comic strip (and insane 1970's film), will debut in August. Peter Hume wrote the pilot and second episode and "Smallville" director Rick Rosenthal will direct.
