Ronald Moore was nominated for a 2007 Emmy Award in the category of "Outstanding Writing For a Drama Series." The nomination recognized his script for the double-length episode "Occupation/Precipice," the first episode of the third season of Battlestar Galactica.(edit)
Variety reported in November 2006 that Ronald Moore is writing the script for the Universal Pictures remake of John Carpenter's sci-fi horror movie The Thing (1982). The original movie featured a shapeshifting extraterrestrial creature that menaced researchers at an Antarctic science station. That film was a remake of The Thing From Another World (1951). The inspiration for that movie came from a 1938 short story, "Who Goes There?" by noted sci-fi author John W. Campbell Jr.(edit)
As of December 2005, he is helping to develop the series Warehouse 13 for the Sci Fi Channel. The show, from writer Brent Mote, follows two government officials who are banished to a storage facility in North Dakota in which every item has a supernatural or fantastical history. (edit)
He is working on the fantasy series Pen and the Sword for NBC. The show features a young man who works in a building that is a portal to a medieval alternate universe. (edit)
In December 2005, he signed a two-year development deal with NBC Universal Television Studio to create and develop series, with an emphasis on science-fiction projects.(edit)
