Wow! I did niot see this coming at all. For fans of "Noah's Arc," Logo's flagship series about four African-American gay friends in Los Angeles, we have been waiting for word on the show's third season and things seemed to be up in the air. Even cast members had no idea.
This morning comes word that "Noah's Arc" will be made into a theatrical film set for release in 2008! It will be Logo's first big-screen effort.Currently in development, the film is expected to pick up after the show’s second season cliffhanger finale and will leave the door open for sequels, additional television seasons and specials.

"Noah’s Arc" premiered on Logo in October 2005, just months after the launch of the network and season two premiered in August 2006.  The show follows the lives and loves of four African-American gay men looking for love and signs of intelligent life in Los Angeles: Noah (Darryl Stephens), Chance (Doug Spearman), Alex (Rodney Chester) and Ricky (Christian Vincent).
Says Polk. “Never in my wildest dreams could I have imagined this little independent show in movie theatres!  Hats off to MTV Networks and Logo for believing in us enough to take Noah to that next level.�

Personally, I.Can't. Wait.
