ProductionAlex Cox had initially optioned the rights to a film version of Harry Harrison's 1965 novel in 1983 as he was completing Repo Man. The project met with studio resistance and remained unmade until 2012, when Alex Cox had begun teaching film production at the University of Colorado at Boulder. He had the idea to have his students film an adaptation of the novel and suggested the idea to Harrison, who granted Cox an academic license to produce a student film[1][2] and was working with Cox on the screenplay for the film at the time of his death in 2012.[3] In March 2013, Cox launched a Kickstarter campaign, hoping to raise a goal of $100,000 to shoot the film. The Kickstarter campaign raised $114,957 from 1,106 backers.[4] Cox also succeeded in getting a number of film professionals to work on a royalties basis. The film went into production in October 2013.[5] Scenes were shot in university buildings. Iggy Pop, who wrote and performed the song "Repo Man" for Alex Cox's 1984 film, also wrote and performed the theme song for Bill, the Galactic Hero.[6] ReleaseThe film premiered in Boulder, Colorado on December 12, 2014. It gained positive reviews.[7][8][9] It was later shown on New Year's Eve at the Clinton Street Theater.[10] References1. ^{{cite web |url=http://www.dailycamera.com/cu-news/ci_21788972/apollo-era-replica-spacesuits-take-earthbound-trip-across |title=Apollo-era replica space suits take earthbound trip across CU-Boulder campus |last1=Rubino |first1=Joe |date=16 October 2012 |publisher=Daily Camera |accessdate=19 April 2013}} 2. ^{{cite web|url=https://alexcoxfilms.wordpress.com/2013/02/10/bill-the-galactic-hero/|title=BILL, THE GALACTIC HERO|date=10 February 2013|publisher=}} 3. ^{{cite web|url=https://www.theguardian.com/film/2013/apr/17/alex-cox-bill-galactic-hero-kickstarter|title=Alex Cox crowdfunds Bill the Galactic Hero film via Kickstarter|first=Ben|last=Child|date=17 April 2013|website=the Guardian}} 4. ^{{cite web|url=https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/alexcoxfilms/alex-cox-directs-bill-the-galactic-hero|title=Alex Cox directs BILL THE GALACTIC HERO|website=Kickstarter}} 5. ^Kickstarter campaign page for Bill, The Galactic Hero 6. ^{{cite web|url=https://dangerousminds.net/comments/iggy_pop_reunites_with_director_alex_cox|title=Iggy Pop reunites with director Alex Cox for ‘Bill, the Galactic Hero’|date=21 January 2015|publisher=}} 7. ^{{cite web |url=http://blogs.westword.com/showandtell/2014/12/alex_cox_on_bill_the_galactic_hero.php |title=Alex Cox on Bill the Galactic Hero, Biggest Student Movie of All Time |last1=Casciato |first1=Cory |date=10 December 2014 |publisher=Denver Westworld |accessdate=3 January 2015}} 8. ^{{cite web |url=http://www.boulderweekly.com/article-13774-an-independent-fit-for-boulder.html |title=An independent fit for Boulder |last1=Casey |first1=Michael |date=18 December 2014 |publisher=Boulder Weekly |accessdate=3 January 2015}} 9. ^{{cite web |url=http://www.starburstmagazine.com/reviews/latest-reviews-of-movies/10596-bill-the-galactic-hero |title=Bill, the Galactic Hero |last1=Fortune |first1=Ed |date=19 December 2014 |publisher=Daily Camera |accessdate=3 January 2015}} 10. ^{{cite web|url=https://cstpdx.com/show/special-new-years-eve-screening-bill-galactic-hero|title=Special New Year's Eve Screening: BILL THE GALACTIC HERO - The Clinton Street Theater|website=cstpdx.com}} External links
