From DVDActive
Title: Caprica
Starring: Eric Stoltz
Released: 21st April 2009
SRP: $26.98

Further Details:
Universal Home Video has announced Caprica which stars Eric Stoltz, Esai Morales, and Paula Malcomson. The feature length prequel to “Battlestar Galactica" will be available to own from the 21st April, and should retail at around $26.98. Extras will include a commentary with Director Jeffrey Reiner and Executive Producer/Writer Ronald D. Moore and Executive Producer David Eick, deleted scenes, and video blogs (What the Frak is Caprica?, The Director’s Process, The V Club, The Birth of a Cylon).

Synopsis:
Quote: Set 50 years before Battlestar Galactica, Caprica follows two rival families and their patriarchs – Daniel Graystone (Eric Stoltz) and Joseph Adama (Esai Morales) – as they compete and thrive in the vibrant world of the 12 Colonies, a society recognizably close to our own. Enmeshed in the burgeoning technology of artificial intelligence and robotics that will eventually lead to the creation of the Cylons, the two houses go toe-to-toe blending action with corporate conspiracy and sexual politics.


And, from Sci Fi Wire
Caprica, the highly anticipated prequel to Battlestar Galactica, will premiere exclusively on DVD on April 21 from Universal Studios Home Entertainment, SCI FI Channel announced.

The feature-length prequel will be available on DVD as a limited-edition uncut and unrated version before the series' broadcast premiere on the SCI FI Channel in 2010.

Caprica is executive-produced by Ronald D. Moore and David Eick (Battlestar Galactica) and Remi Aubuchon (24). The DVD will carry a suggested retail price of $26.98.

Universal Cable Productions will begin production on the Caprica series in the summer in Vancouver for a 2010 television premiere.

The DVD will also include bonus features that take viewers behind the scenes of the creation of Caprica.

The film will also be available at selected online destinations for digital download transactions.

Here's how SCI FI describes the series: Caprica begins a new epic saga that continues the franchise's commitment to thought-provoking storytelling and extraordinary characters. Set more than 50 years before the events of Battlestar Galactica, Caprica is a world at the peak of its power, grappling with new science and technologies and the issues they create.

The series will star Eric Stoltz, Esai Morales, Paula Malcomson and Polly Walker.


There no listing for this currently on SciFi Channel's schedule...yet, but they don't have the April schedule posted right now.  If they follow Razor's pattern, I'd expect this to air sometime in early April though.  I'm sure this will also be included with the eventual season 1 set that will come out in 2011 (season 1 is set to air in 2010), like the BSG miniseries & Razor.

I stand corrected...according to the official press release (found: here), Caprica will be premiering on DVD well before it's air date.  This kinda surprises me.

On a side note, another great episode of BSG tonight!  These last 2 epsiodes, along with the rescue at New Caprica, have been my favorite of the series.
