Since this is a as in development stage as IMBD page for Jericho has posted there is not much to report but yes it is coming and I am so glad to hear that. I was one of those fans that kept writing in when they were going to cancel the show and like many grumbled at series finally because it seemed a little rushed together. Jericho may have not been one of those wow you with the effects sci fi but it had a great post apocalyptic story plot of a town that survived a devastating Nuclear assault on the US ( Done by some factions in the US )and the story how they rallied to survive and eventually bring to light the injustice of the leadership that caused the holocaust. You can watch full episodes of the series on CBS.coms Jericho Video Season 1 and 2.
The news that I can find on Jericho comes from a couple of sources
1. Scifimoviepage.com
JERICHO (2010) – PREVIEW
THEY SAY
Jericho
is a drama about what happens when a nuclear mushroom cloud suddenly appears on the horizon, plunging the residents of a small, peaceful Kansas town into chaos, leaving them completely isolated and wondering if they’re the only Americans left alive. But in this time of crisis, as sensible people become paranoid, personal agendas take over and well-kept secrets threaten to be revealed, some people will find an inner strength they never knew they had and the most unlikely heroes will emerge.

Jon Turteltaub Plans to Bring Jericho to the Big Screen
Jericho is the TV show that won’t die. It originally premiered on CBS in 2006 only to get cancelled after a handful of episodes. After the fans campaigned to have it brought back by sending the network truckloads of nuts, Jericho was given another half season. And now, episodes are being reaired on the CW, where it garners bigger ratings than critically acclaimed shows like Mad Men. According to an interview in If Magazine, producer John Turteltaub is planning to bring the series back as a big screen feature film sometime later this year.
And 3. Wild about movies
“Jericho: The Movie”
Director John Turteltaub is bringing the series “Jericho” back as a big screen feature film. You’ll remember John Turtletaub not only as the producer (and a director) of the TV show “Jericho” as the force behind the movie box office smashes “National Treasure” and “National Treasure 2.”
John Turteltaub stated, “It’s fun to see the show won’t die. We’re developing a feature for ‘Jericho.’ It would not require you to have seen the TV show, but it gets into life after an event like this on a national scale. It would be the bigger, full on American version of what’s going on beyond the town in ‘Jericho.”
This last boldly stating that the whole cast is back for this one. I do not see why not and I hope so . They had a great chemistry together but none of the other sources has stated who will be staring in it.
Until then there is the Jericho comic. The first issue is already out and the second should be out in January. You can order from Devil’s Due:

Thanks for the heads up on that. Will be looking out for them.
Thank you. Jericho was one of my favorites too and you can be sure when the news comes out on the movie or anything else about it I will post it. 🙂

i really hope they put the movie together…i am a huge jericho fan now.
how underrated is Skeet Ulrich?
I wish I could bring some good news for a movie. I really been wanting to write some updates on any news but all feedback so far is nothing is going to happen. I even went as far as getting google updates once a week on the series and mostly it comes back with non relevant news on Jericho.
I am with you on this. I am a huge fan and would love to see the series turn into a movie or even a SYFY mini series of some sort.
