Black And Browder Reunite In SG-1
Robert C. Cooper, executive producer of SCI FI Channel's original series Stargate SG-1, told SCI FI Wire that Farscape star Claudia Black will reunite with her co-star Ben Browder in several episodes of SG-1's upcoming ninth season. Black will play Vala, a human character who will be introduced in the 12th episode of season eight, "Prometheus Unbound," which airs early next year when SG-1 resumes original episodes.
"It will air in January <28>," Cooper said in an interview. "It'll be the second episode back in our run on SCI FI. And we thought she was absolutely wonderful. The character really worked out. She had wonderful chemistry with Michael Shanks. She plays opposite
Daniel Jackson in the episode."
Black will return to SG-1 in five season nine episodes, which begin shooting in March. "We are having to ... deal with a brief absence of Carter, Amanda Tapping, who's pregnant," Cooper said. "And we had already discussed a storyline that involved the return of Vala, ... the character played by Claudia. And so we thought it worked perfectly to have that sort of miniarc play out maybe while Amanda was less available to us."
