Subject: Info about the new video from the TV Guide site A Sneak Peek Inside Stargate's Ark of Truth


Michael Shanks and Claudia Black courtesy MGMMarch 11th is D-Day for Stargate: Ark of Truth, the eagerly awaited made-for-DVD movie that ties up the storylines left dangling when the Sci Fi Channel cancelled the longest running series last June. "We hadn't really resolved the story," says producer-writer Robert C. Cooper, "so we felt a responsibility to wrap things up in the way they did with Farscape, when it came back as a miniseries."

TV Guide got a peek at the $7 million feature-length DVD-movie, and we're happy to share that it's all about SG-1's search for a fabled weapon that's reportedly the only chance to stop the Ori from taking over Earth. As if chief Ori Adria and her ilk don't provide enough danger, a creepy crawly from the past threatens the team on the USSS Odyssey from within. Keep your eye on guest star Currie Graham, the ubiquitous actor most recently seen on Men in Trees and Boston Legal. (And, yeah, Ben Browder fans, Lt. Col. Mitchell takes plenty of lumps.)

Although Ark concludes the series, at least one more 'Gate movie is just about finished. Continuum, which was made with Ark last spring, is a stand-alone story set in the Arctic. Richard Dean Anderson is back for this alternate time-line venture, where no Stargate program exists and the long-vanquished Goa-uld rule. "Hopefully these will demonstrate that we still have SG-1 stories to tell," Cooper says. That means more DVDs could be on the way, though there are no deals yet.

Sci Fi hasn't signed off on Stargate: Universe, Cooper and co-producer Brad Wright's third franchise entry, which will have a new setting yet allow for crossovers from the other series. In the meantime, Atlantis will be back for Season 5 this summer (probably July), and SG-1's Michael Shanks will make a two-episode visit mid-season. — Ileane Rudolph

[> Oooo... thanks! I think the second dvd sounds way more interesting then the first movie. I'll wait for that one. You guys tell me if I should buy the first one. ALSO, looks like Atlantis will begin in JULY and we won't have to wait all the way until September!!! Boy, I hope so. Great article! Thanks for posting it! -- Luoodles, 19:33:56 03/05/08 Wed [1]
