Actress Amanda Tapping will reprise her role of Samantha Carter on a forthcoming episode of Syfy’s Stargate Universe.
The 44-year-old, who plays Helen Magnus on the network’s Sanctuary, is to return for a second guest spot on Universe at the end of its current season.
Tapping played Carter previously on Stargate: SG-1 and Stargate Atlantis.
“I did their first two-parter and I’m at the very end of their season. And I just shot that a few weeks ago. So I started their season and I’m ending their season, which was very cool,” she told The Huffington Post.
She added: “But I didn’t get to play with anyone. If they were ever to have me come back, I’d want to be with people. I’m kind of off on my ship, which I think is awesome.”
Sanctuary and Stargate Universe both air on Friday nights on Syfy.
I am a huge Stargate SG1 and Atlantis fan, since Universe came out I have a hard time watching it. I find it to be more a drama than a science fiction show. Yes, I am very disappointed and have stopped watching the show (which I never thought possible, but its true) So… I will watch it when Sam comes back.
I couldn't agree more. It's just constant backbiting and infighting and it has become a soap opera for me. What a sad way for the Stargate intellectual property to peter out with a whimper.
I've heard some possible spoilers about the second half of the season that MAY turn the show around. We shall see.
