One reviewer wonders if it's deadpan satire. Let me start by dismissing a couple of possible theories. With all its faults, I simply loved it as a 14 year old, and I'm in no way alone there. But that wouldn't be doing the book justice. Obviously, nothing is concrete at this point with either this sequel series or the reboot film, but it definitely sounds like fans of the original Starship Troopers may have reason to celebrate in the near future.My first impulse is to dismiss it as an appalling piece of militaristic propaganda, whose one saving grace is that it's at least much better than the movie.

I’m not sure who goes to see that movie, though.” So maybe you could do that, a romantic picture about kids coming up together in the service and one of them becoming an officer and (what) all of that means, you know? It’s really not what Heinlein’s about, but that’s okay, I can imagine you could do that. “I based the structure of Starship Troopers when I was writing it (on) the structure of WWII propaganda films that the studios made between 19 … idea is, as I understood … to kind of do An Officer and Gentleman. Johnny Rico as the Officer and Gentlemen version of a sci-fi movie.

“Well, I have mixed feelings about because I think that what we did with the first Starship is almost not repeatable in a way,” Neumeier said. Neumeier is not involved in that project, and it doesn’t sound like he’s a huge fan of the idea, either. It’s unclear how this potential series could affect the planned upcoming Starship Troopers reboot film from Sony, which is reportedly going to be a tamer, PG-13 interpretation of Robert A. It’s unclear where the show would potentially air, what it would look like, or how much of the original cast would return, but just knowing that it’s a possibility should be enough to excite fans. In other words, Neumeier is having discussions - though he didn’t divulge with whom - about bringing back the OG cast, most notably star Casper Van Dien, for a Starship Troopers sequel TV series. “I don’t want to jinx anything, but we are talking about trying to do a television show that is based on that idea,” he said. In an interview with HN Entertainment, Neumeier was asked about the prospect of reuniting the original cast of 1997’s Starship Troopers for a sequel, and he gave a surprising answer. But that’s not all Neumeier is working on, as the writer/producer has revealed that his other major science-fiction series could also be coming back in a big way. The screenwriter behind RoboCop and Starship Troopers is currently producing RoboCop Returns, which is based on a reworked version of his unproduced sequel script from the late ’80s, and the film sounds like it’s going to return to the franchise to its former glory.
