Thanks! But you won't hear news from me. MGM did hire me to write a pilot for a new show but that was just before covid hit. Timing couldn't have been much worse. All the players have changed in the interim so it's likely destined to gather dust. Would've been fun, though.

There's no reason to think that the idea of a fourth Stargate series is dead just because it doesn't involve Wright, although the quality of these endeavors – Stargate Origins, anyone? – have left a lot to be desired.
The reality is that despite his decade-long custody of the Stargate universe, it's ultimately MGM's plaything, and they might be looking to follow the lessons of Doctor Who in 2005* and want to put some clear blue wormhole water between a new incarnation of the show and its predecessor.
*This comparison doesn't track perfectly for various reasons, don't shout at me.
