Michael Shanks—who returns as Dr. Daniel Jackson in the upcoming seventh season of the SCI FI Channel original series Stargate SG-1—told SCI FI Wire that the sixth-season finale's climactic events set the stage for major changes. "They seemed to kill a lot of characters, end a lot of races and eliminate a lot of our potential allies, so everything would be in place for a big, climactic two-hour movie," Shanks said in an interview. "Then, when they realized we were going [for a seventh season], they said, 'Oh boy, we killed everyone. We eliminated all our threats, and now we have to start all over again.'"
Season seven will feature new cultures and the return of old friends, including Jackson, Shanks said in an interview. The SG-1 team will also continue on their journey to find the lost city mentioned in "Full Circle," the sixth-season finale. "There are going to be ramifications from Daniel's de-ascension," Shanks said. "There's a great episode called 'Space Race,' which will feature probably some of the best spaceship visual effects that we've had. There's a great episode called 'Lifeboat' that's all about different personalities being put into Daniel's head. We're only on episode eight right now, so there's still a lot to be discovered."
New episodes of Stargate SG-1 begin with the two-hour seventh-season premiere on June 13, following a season-premiere special, Stargate: The Lowdown, at 8 p.m. ET/PT.
