SciFiNow recently spoke with Rachel Luttrell, who played Teyla Emmagan on Stargate Atlantis, about the series and the upcoming direct-to-DVD release Stargate Extinction. While she was unable to definitively confirm anything regarding the production, she did share her suspicions about when the cast and crew may reunite to shoot the feature.

“There’s a rumour that it’ll start shooting in November,” said Luttrell in a telephone interview on Friday evening. “That once [Stargate] Universe is done with its season production then we’ll move into it, but none of that has been confirmed.” Production on the series is still in the embryonic stages however, with none of the cast aware of the plot yet or basic details. “You know what, I wish I could [tell you about Extinction], in fact it’s sad to say but you’ve actually revealed the title to me before I knew it,” the actress admitted. “We know nothing about it, and by we, I mean my fellow actors and I. We haven’t had an opportunity to read anything or to talk with our writers about it yet.”

I love how the studio keeps the actors informed.... *cough*

It was sorta sad really and Rachell seems like a very even keel type of person but I believe I noted a 'hint' of annoyance. LOL It was the 'you've revealed the title to me' quote among others.

I wonder, do any of the actors from SGA have a 'good' relationship with TPTB? I think Robert Picardo might and it may just be me, but I get this weird vibe that if you're not 'important' enough, like RDA or Picardo or Carlyle, they just don't make an effort i.e. the respect they accord is in direct relationship to the standing of the actor. Ah, I'm just being a conspiracy theorist, I'm sure. Thanks for the article, appreciate it.

I think you may be on the money with that one.

Yeah, I sorta felt that too from her response. Just from everything I"ve read, I do think the SGA cast were, well, as many fans are prone to say, the 'stepchildren' of the SG franchise. SG1 is given everything, and they're bending over backwards and more for SGU.I don't fault any of the actors on SGU and hope they don't get backlash, but the producers, well, that's another story...
