JMS making Babylon 5 reboot - Bob Schroeck - 09-28-2021
According to an article published yesterday by Variety, J. Michael Straczynski is the head writer and executive producer of a complete reboot of Babylon 5 that is currently in development for The CW.
One interesting difference that's been reported is that the story will focus on Sheridan from the start rather than Sinclair. We know now that Sheridan was a substitution when Michael O'Hare left the show because of problems with mental illness; I suspect that JMS is simply returning the story to its original arc with the later character in place of the earlier.
Not much more than that has been released yet, so we'll have to wait and see what develops.

And JMS has since announced why he's chosen to do a reboot.

And just like thirty years ago, JMS has to ask people not to send ideas or stories.

Damn, I missed my chance to tell JMS about my idea for a new character named Brent. He’s a ruggedly handsome hot shot fighter pilot. He has a tragic backstory, but the hardest thing now is dating Delenn, Ivanova, and Kosh’s hot sister, Posh, all at the same time. Oh and he’s immune to telepathy of course.

You forgot to mention Posh's friends who he's also dating - Scary, Baby, Sporty, and Ginger.

Not gonna lie, I was thinking about Victoria Beckham with a big pair of <spoiler>s when I wrote that.
