Moore is said to be working closely with the Disney Imagineering Team, the group responsible for creating and designing thousands of toys, attractions and resorts at Disney’s theme parks. They will work together to push the first project out of the turnstiles and into Disney +, which could end up being the host of the potential franchise if the first program is a success.It is understood that Moore will try to expand the universe in a similar way to the world that he managed to build in the beloved reimagination of Battlestar Galactica and its multiple developments by Syfy. Moore has a lot of experience when it comes to world building, as he has also played a key role in several Star Trek programs, including The Next Generation, Deep Space Nine and Voyager.
Moore’s most recent projects include Starz’s TV adaptation of Diana Gabaldon’s Outlander book series, as well as Apple TV + ‘s For All Mankind, produced by Sony TV, where he already had a contract. IGN credited For All Mankind as the best show on the Apple TV + release list, calling it “the most confident, fully realized and best executed effort” on the VOD platform.
Moore recently signed a multi-year production contract with Disney’s 20th Television, which will see him leading several projects across the Disney portfolio. His first venture is the Swiss Family Robinson series at Disney +, in which he is working with Jon M. Chu, as part of Disney’s continued expansion of new series and original films in its streaming service.
