Battlestar Galactica may be wrapping up soon, but fear not: There is still more space drama to come.

A two-hour Battlestar Galactica special is set to air following the series' end in 2009, Sci Fi announced Thursday. The as-yet-untitled special will be directed by star Edward James Olmos and feature familiar BSG faces Michael Trucco, Aaron Douglas and Dean Stockwell. The network will name-drop more participants in the forthcoming weeks. No details yet on plot, but longtime sci-fi and BSG scribe Jane Espenson will pen the script.

Currently on mid-season hiatus, Battlestar will return to airwaves with its final 10 episodes after "the first of the year," executive producer Ronald D. Moore told TVGuide.com.

In the meantime, the Peabody Award-winning show will vie for six trophies at the Emmy Awards next month. - Joyce Eng
