The new Stargate Universe

Postby Kevin Thomas Riley » Thu Dec 04, 2008 11:59 pm

The new Stargate spin-off has issued a casting call.

Meet the Stargate Universe team!

Colonel Everett Young
40's handsome, capable, former SG team leader. Like the Jack O'Neill of ten years ago, but Young's edges have tended to sharpen over time. He requested permission to serve the remainder of his commission on Earth upon marrying his wife, Hailey, two years ago, but for now he's temporary commander of a secret off world base. The loss of two members of his team several years ago has taught him never to take anything for granted, and be prepared for anything. He stays on top of his team so they stay alive. STAR NAMES ONLY. SERIES REGULAR;

Tamara Jon
20-25, all ethnicities (Asian Preferably). SGC Field medic, Captain grade. Off world experience. Beautiful, tough, smart, capable. Paramedic level training. Able to triage serious injury. Modest background. Dreamed of being a doctor but couldn't afford medical school and the Air Force was her best option. She ends up being the most medically inclined person on the ship but is overwhelmed by the lack of knowledge and experience treating seriously wounded and ill patients. She also lacks the medicine and supplies and has to make do. SERIES REGULAR;

Chloe Carpenter
20ish. Stunning and sexy. Daughter of a U.S. Senator. Silver spoon upbringing and a little spoiled but not stupid either. Politically and socially savvy. Dreams of following in her father's footsteps but for now she's a bit of a party girl in her first year at an Ivy League school. Her father's tragic death and the dire circumstances of being trapped on a spaceship seriously tests her character. SERIES REGULAR;

Eli Hitchcock
20-25. Total slacker. Utter genius. Mathematics, computers, anything he puts his mind to. Acerbic sense of humor. A social outcast. Comes from a broken home. Lacks confidence because his true intelligence has never really been recognized like Matt Damon's character from Good Will Hunting with a little Jack Black thrown in sptv050769. SERIES REGULAR;

Lt. Jared Nash
20-25. Junior S.G.C. team member. Officer material but green and rough around the edges. Every teenage girl's fantasy. Like a college quarterback thrown into his first pro game, he is thrust into the role of leader well before he's ready for the responsibility and must learn to take command, earn respect through action, and manage the diverse personalities on the ship to keep everyone alive. Like Jason Bourne, he is skilled and well-trained however he is mentally unprepared for the urgency of the situation. SERIES REGULAR;

Ron "Psycho" Stasiak
20, all ethnicities. Marine. Big, strong, silent. You want him on your side. You don't want him mad at you. Lacks control over his temper in non combat situations. His past is a mystery but it's clear something dark formed the hard shell around him. Yet, there must also be some moral center because otherwise he'd kill everyone around him. Think Eric Bana's character "Hoot" in Blackhawk Down. SERIES REGULAR.

Geez... all (except the Colonel) are in their twenties, and my hopes for Carson Beckett and the Nicole deBoer character to join the team has been dashed.
She's got an awfully nice bum!

How can your "true intelligence never be recognized" yet be on an SG TEAM!? These bios are so retarded.

How can you be "officer material" but be a Lt? I swear to god these people know nothing about the military... LT IS AN OFFICER!

KTR,

What is the premise for this Stargate series and why is it so different from Stargate Atlantis? Didn't they just cancel Atlantis? so :?: what's the point? Also, I thought it was going to animated like the Clone Wars from Star Wars? I got it wrong, well, it's not the first time related to Hollywood.

Also, I did not recognize any of the names Ellesar put forth except Kiefer Sutherland. Sorry, don't watch much TV. However, from reading the description of the commander, Captain Charles "Trip" Tucker" III as portrayed in Chrisis033's video for Rigil Kent's Endeavour series jumped out at me: battle-hardened but still compassionate and patient enough to understand and lead a young crew.

This has pretty much exactly the same premise as SG:A. Heh, I should totally put in for Eli Hitchcock. :twisted:

where was the premise written? I thought originally it was going to have something to do w/ a 9th chevron? Something about parallel universes. I had heard a rumor that they were going to do an SG:A movie (like Continuum or Ark of Truth) that would launch the series but idk if that's really gonna happen.

From the official press release:

After unlocking the mystery of the Stargate's ninth chevron, a team of explorers travels to an unmanned starship called the Destiny, launched by the Ancients at the height of their civilization as a grand experiment set in motion, but never completed.

What starts as a simple reconnaissance turns into a never ending mission, as the Stargate Universe crew discovers the ship is unable to return to Earth, and they must now fend for themselves aboard the Destiny.

The crew will travel to the far reaches of the universe, connecting with each of the previously launched Stargates, thus fulfilling the Destiny's original mission. Challenges will arise though as the ship comes into range of Stargates placed centuries ahead of the Destiny and the crew is unable to control the ship's navigational schedule. If someone is left behind, there is no way to go back for them, adding to the drama of encountering new races, enemies and adventures.

There is more here and here.

To me this sounds like Stargate's version of Voyager. :? With a Melrose Place crew. :roll:

Robert Carlyle to star in Stargate Universe

Well, at least he's not one of those youngsters. He could actually be pretty good, although I hope they don't make him a Rodney McKay clone.
