'Battlestar' prequel to have 1950s look

The executive producer of forthcoming Battlestar Galactica prequel Caprica has revealed that the show will have a 1950s feel.

"The look is nostalgic, almost 1950s, with the men in hats, ties and stylish suits," Remi Aubuchon, who has also written the pilot, told TV Guide.

He also stressed that the essence of the two-hour TV movie, to be aired on the Sci-Fi Channel in late 2008, will not be pure science fiction.

"Caprica is a sweeping, highly emotional relationship drama," stated Aubuchon, who added that it is "a Rich Man, Poor Man set in a science-fiction environment".
