"Primeval star Andrew-Lee Potts has claimed that a film adaptation of the series is still in the works. It was reported in 2009 that Warner Bros. had acquired the screen rights to the sci-fi drama in a six-figure deal. &amp;quot;The film is definitely happening,&amp;quot; Potts told TV Choice. &amp;quot;It&amp;#039;s being developed [and] the script has been written.&amp;quot; The actor, who plays Connor Temple in the ITV series, added that he is unsure if the proposed production will incorporate the original show&amp;#039;s cast. &amp;quot;As for our involvement, it&amp;#039;s too early to say,&amp;quot; he said. &amp;quot;It&amp;#039;s more of an American thing because the rights have been sold to Warner Bros. It will be completely independent of the series.&amp;quot; Former Primeval star Lucy Brown previously suggested that a film version of the show would be &amp;quot;fantastic&amp;quot;. The fifth series of Primeval begins on May 24 at 8pm on Watch. Watch a clip from the Primeval fifth series premiere below:  "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
