"Stargate Universe actress Alaina Huffman has revealed details of the scrapped television movies planned to wrap up the series. Series producer Joseph Mallozzi previously claimed that the sci-fi drama could return for a series of television films but the plans were eventually abandoned. &amp;quot;They tried very hard to put a movie together,&amp;quot; Huffman explained at the recent Wizard World Philadelphia Comic Con. &amp;quot;I thought that would have been a really great way to close out the series. To me, it&amp;#039;s really unfortunate that the franchise didn&amp;#039;t get the opportunity... to finish off the story.&amp;quot; Huffman, who played Lt Tamara Johansen, explained that the first film would have wrapped up the Stargate Universe story arc, while a second would have featured an &amp;quot;all-star cast&amp;quot; from across the Stargate franchise. &amp;quot;[Series co-creator Brad Wright] wanted to do two movies,&amp;quot; she confirmed. &amp;quot;One to finish off our storyline, and one [with] an all-star cast that they thought they&amp;#039;d shoot in Hawaii. I don&amp;#039;t know why they couldn&amp;#039;t get the funding, but they couldn&amp;#039;t.&amp;quot; The actress also blamed the project&amp;#039;s eventual cancellation on Spyglass Entertainment, the production company which recently bought out MGM. &amp;quot;MGM is no longer [functioning and] it&amp;#039;s now being run by Spyglass,&amp;quot; said Huffman. &amp;quot;But Spyglass is not interested in Stargate so therefore would not fund movies.&amp;quot; The final episode of Stargate Universe aired on Syfy on May 9.
