Butterfly Effect: the series
by Anna Johns, posted Jan 15th 2006 11:09AM
Along with other development
news this week, Sci Fi Channel is also reportedly planning a television series of the Ashton
Kutcher-with-facial-hair movie, The Butterfly Effect. The movie was about a man who had the ability to travel
back and forth through time to change the future for himself and others, sometimes with disastrous results. The series
will follow Evan (Kutcher's character) in his trips through time to try and right the wrongs, hoping the next jump will
be his jump home. No, wait. That's Quantum Leap and, yes, I totally ripped that off from Family Guy.
There's also a sequel to The Butterfly Effect that is planned for the big screen, starring Erica Durance
(Smallville) and Eric Lively (The L Word). No word yet on who will star in the series. NBC Universal
is going to produce.TV Squad Hot Topics
