'Razor' Heading To Theaters Nov. 12

Well, if you live in one of the largest cities in the nation, you have a chance to see the "Battlestar Galactica" telemovie not only a couple weeks early, but for free and on the big screen.

SciFi Channel is rolling out a theatrical version of "Razor" Nov. 12 to theaters in Los Angeles, New York, San Francisco, Dallas, Boston, Philadelphia, Seattle and Chicago, according to the Chicago Tribune's Maureen Ryan. Those wanting to attend one of the screenings have to pre-register at battlestarevent.com beginning Friday, as there are only so many seats available.

The film will be the one edited for television that will air on Nov. 24 on SciFi Channel. A much longer one -- a little over an hour-and-a-half -- will be released on DVD Dec. 4 that will include not only the minisodes that have been airing during "Flash Gordon" original runs on Friday nights, but also some additional scenes including flashbacks to Helena Cain as a young girl during the first Cylon war.

The telemovie features Jamie Bamber, Katee Sackhoff and Michelle Forbes heavily, playing the roles of Lee Adama, Kara Thrace and Helena Cain respectively. It also stars Stephanie Jacobsen and Kendra Shaw, an aid to Cain who finds herself trying to continue her former admiral's legacy.

Because the showings are free, NBC Universal is likely avoiding any issue that "Battlestar Galactica" creator Glen A. Larson could bring up, since he owns the theatrical rights to the series and the name.

"Battlestar Galactica" will air "Razor" Nov. 24, and will return for its fourth and final season beginning in early 2008.
