Tumbling through time and alternate realities, is Babylon-5’s Sheridan, in the all-new animated movie The Road Home.
Leaping home
If you’ve been following along with the Babylon-5 renaissance over the last few months, then you’re probably a pretty happy fan right about now. Not only is the show (eventually) getting a sequel series, but it’s once again found its way into the zeitgeist, and it being talked about regularly on social media. Oh, and it also has a brand new animated movie, which is out right now on home video.
Called Babylon-5: The Road Home, the film stars the voices of many of the original series’ cast. Among those is of course Bruce Boxleitner as Sheridan, who find himself lost in time, and cascading through a series of possible pasts and presents.
Those who remember the show fondly will come across more than a few familiar faces present in the animated movie, as Sheridan tries to find his way home. And if you’re looking for something that holds the flavor of the classic show, you’re not going to do much better, since The Road Home was penned by J. Michael Straczynski himself, B5’s creator.
Here’s a clip:
