Murphy Becomes Caprica Exec Producer
Written by Wayne Hall on November 16, 2009 – 12:00 pm -
Originally hired as co-executive producer to help with the second half of the show’s first season, Kevin Murphy has now taken the reins of Caprica, the Battlestar Galactica prequel on Syfy, according to The Hollywood Reporter.
He now serves as an executive producer along with Ronald D. Moore, David Eick and Jane Espenson and oversees the day-to-day functions of the show.
As if that weren’t enough to keep Murphy busy, he’s also scripting a drama for the CW network based on the book “Cheer: Inside the Secret World of College Cheerleaders.”
Caprica will kick off with a two-hour premiere on Jan. 22 at 9 p.m. ET/PT and will air Fridays at 10 p.m.
The show follows two rival families and their patriarchs—Daniel Graystone (Eric Stoltz) and Joseph Adama (Esai Morales)—as they compete and thrive in the vibrant realm of the 12 Colonies, a society recognizably close to our own.
