Ok!! More casting!!

http://www.mania.com/foursome-join-new-stargate_ar ticle_112380.html

SCI FI Channel has announced Justin Louis, David Blue, Brian J. Smith and Jamil Walker Smith will join the cast of the highly anticipated new original series "Stargate Universe." The four will enlist alongside Robert Carlyle (Dr. Nicholas Rush) in the latest adventure in the "Stargate" franchise produced by MGM television. Production will begin in Vancouver in February 2009 with an eye toward a fall '09 premiere.

Edgier and younger in tone than the two previous series, "SGU" follows a band of soldiers, scientists and civilians, who must fend for themselves as they are forced through a Stargate when their hidden base comes under attack. The desperate survivors emerge aboard an ancient ship, which is locked on an unknown course and unable to return to Earth.

Justin Louis ("Hidden Hills," "The Fighting Fitzgeralds") will portray Colonel Everett Young, an experienced Stargate team leader. Married, with years of tough decisions under his belt, life has taught him never to take anything for granted. He stays on top of his team so they stay alive.

David Blue ("Ugly Betty," "Moonlight") stars as Eli Wallace, a total slacker, who just happens to be an utter genius with anything he puts his mind to - mathematics, computers, video games. A lack of confidence has left him with an acerbic sense of humor.

Brian J. Smith (The War Boys, Hate Crime) is Lt. Matthew Scott, a junior member of the Stargate team. Green and rough around the edges, he is thrust into the role of leader well before he's ready for the responsibility and must learn to command, earn respect through action, and manage the diverse personalities aboard the ship.

Jamil Walker Smith ("Waynehead," "Sister, Sister") will portray Sr. Sgt. Ronald Greer, a Marine with a temper you don't want to mess with. His past is mysterious but it's clear something dark formed the hard shell around him.

After looking these people up I've seen them in the following:
Justin Louis: ST Voyager (which doesn't help all the people comparing SGU to Voyager

), 2008's Andromeda Strain

David Blue: Twili er Moonlight (where he played basically the same character he is in SGU...The only difference being that his character was a Vampire

)

Brian J. Smith: Noob actor. Never seen the only movie he's been in. Altho he's got 2 coming out this year

Jamil Walker Smith: Oh yay... a child actor... how fun....Only thing I've seen him in is an ep of Bones.

Oh and in case u didn't realize....SGU won't start till the fall.

Interesting. Bless Lou Diamond Phillips, though, about time he got something other than a bit part.... and now he'll probably be dead by the second episode.

Ok.. where's Teal'c?! Now Amanda Tapping and Gary Jones have joined the cast of SGU!! It's like an SG1 reunion!

And apperantly there's gonna be music in this show in the form of singer Janelle Monae (uh she's been nominated for Grammy's apperantly...never heard of her) who will be singing 2 songs.

Also in SGU is Carlo Rota, who'll play Carl Strom, head of the commitee that's in charge of funding for the Atlantis expidition (hmm...wonder if this means some folks from SGA will be in SGU too?? )

While the show will be set so that the characters are unable to get back to Earth, they will not be cut off from Earth

dierna Member	# Posted: 15 Dec 2008 17:03 Reply Aaand casting has begun!! Scottish actor Sir Robert Carlyle has been cast as Dr. David Rush, the leader of the expidition (his name has apperantly been mentioned on Joseph Malozzi's blog but was not on the list of characters). Robert Carlyle was seen recently in 24: Redemption. Looking at his filmography I've seen him in: Eragon, Hitler: Rise of Evil (where he played Hitler), The World is Not Enough (where he played Bond villian Renard), and The Full Monty. So Sir Robert Carlyle has 2 things going for him. He's hot and Scottish! Mmm....Me loves the Scottish accent... http://news.yahoo.com/s/nm/20081215/tv_nm/us_scifi _1

aeon Member	# Posted: 19 Jan 2009 03:33 Reply So, basically that show is Star Trek: Voyager, just in a new design, right? I mean, the plot is so similar, it's ridiculous. No offense to the Stargate fans, I'm sure they'll enjoy the show. But I find it a little too obvious... a crew stranded on a remote planet, trying to get home on a ship... I don't know...

polson Member	# Posted: 16 Apr 2009 18:08 Reply BTW - while I was at the convention, I got loooooooads of SGU info. Couple things I can share. While the show will be set so that the characters are unable to get back to Earth, they will not be cut off from Earth (so, different from Atlantis season 1 and most of Voyager). Fans asked Brad Wright about the filming style as it seemed very BSG (which was not popular with the crowd). He admitted the trailer that was put together does look very BSG and does seem a lot darker. He confirmed that they put a different spin on the new series but assured fans it will still have that Stargate sense of humor and flare we've come to love in the show, he also added that when they looked around at different sci fi shows for filming styles, the one they liked best and tried to model was for Firefly, not BSG. Brad Wright confirmed there will be two gay characters on SGU. That's all I can really say! I was on the set of SGU, however I signed a nondisclosure agreement so I can't tell you anything about it. Neener neener neener.

polson Member	# Posted: 17 Apr 2009 07:05 Reply Yeah, it's all cameo stuff from SG-1, short and sweet. OH I do have other news... SG-1 will have a new movie. They are currently writing the script - it will center on Jack O'Neill instead of it just being a cameo apperance. RDA is on board with that, so it's for sure. They hope to start filming late 2009 or early 2010. SGA - at the moment MGM only wants to focus on one movie at a time. As SG-1 was here first and still stands as their primary money maker, they are going to do the third SG-1 movie before starting on the planned SGA movie. Though delayed, the promise there WILL be an SGA movie. SGU is already garranteed two seasons and will be AIRING ON SPACE!!!! Yay for us Canadians who don't have satalite! (except I fully admit I will only be watching SGU in order to hate it).
