奥斯卡获奖电影《Crash》（撞车）今年将被Starz频道拍成电视剧，这也是该电视频道建立以来第一部原创情节类电视剧。Starz是一个以播放电影为主的频道，类似于国内的电影频道。据称，除了缔造者David Cronenberg之外，原《Crash》电影的大部分幕后制作人员－－包括编剧、导演兼制片人Paul Haggis，制片人Bobby Moresco、Bob Yari、Don Cheadle、Mark R. Harris及执行制片人Tom Nunan在内－－都将参与剧集的制作。
据悉，该片的叙事方式将和电影版本如出一辙，但是不会有任何一个电影版的角色出现在电视剧版中。也就是说，电视剧版从角色到情节都是全新的。
该剧5月初开机拍摄。

花絮
《Crash》最初是当作一部电视剧来构思的，只是因为种种原因未能如愿。想不到初始剧本被改写成电影剧本后，反而取得了巨大成功。如今《Crash》重回小屏幕，势必成为2008年新剧中的亮点，也将成为2009年艾美奖的热门候选。不过，尽管剧本的改编难度不大，但要网罗电影版中那样庞大的全明星阵容，是不可能的事。此外，电视剧不可能只关注 "种族矛盾" 这一个话题，还有庞大而繁杂的情节线需要编剧来慢慢梳理。
该剧剧本最初被提交给FX电视台，但FX刚刚续订了《Dirt》、《The Riches》和《Damages》三部招牌剧，因此否掉了《Crash》的拍摄计划。
好莱坞各大电视网大多数普通剧集的平均花费大约为250万美元／集，Starz自称 "绝对不会低于这个预算"。
负责改编和拍摄该剧的狮门公司对该剧充满了信心。
This drama, developed by Lionsgate for Starz, is a small screen version of the Paul Haggis helmed feature about race relations in LA.

In their second year together, the crew of Deep Space 9 face problems that will affect the galaxy forever. A Bajoran extremist group attempts to force the Federation out of the Bajoran system. The Cardassians are secretly supplying them with weapons, hoping to return to reclaim the planet and hold the Bajoran wormhole for the Cardassian Union. However, the greatest enemy of all is lurking beyond it.

Season 3 of Deep Space Nine marks a turning point for the series, as it introduces the USS Defiant, a powerful starship that allows the crew to explore the Gamma Quadrant and face the threat of the Dominion, a vast and ruthless empire ruled by the shape-shifting Founders.

Season 4 of Deep Space Nine marks a major shift for the series, as it introduces a new conflict between the Federation and the Klingon Empire, sparked by the latter's distrust of the shape-shifting Founders. Worf, the former security chief of the USS Enterprise-D, joins the station's crew as Sisko's strategic operations officer, and faces challenges in his loyalty, honor, and family.

Season 5 of Deep Space Nine begins the Dominion War arc that will dominate the rest of the show. The Federation and its allies face a new enemy in the form of the Cardassian-Dominion alliance, which threatens to conquer the Alpha Quadrant.

Season 7 of Deep Space Nine marks the end of the series, as it concludes the Dominion War arc and the saga of the characters and their relationships. The Federation and its allies face the final showdown with the Cardassian-Dominion alliance, which is aided by the Breen. Sisko and his crew must also deal with the threat of the pah-wraiths, the evil counterparts of the Prophets, who are unleashed by Kai Winn and Dukat.
