Christopher Judge Previews His Return to Stargate!
by Ileane Rudolph
Less than a year after Stargate finished its 10-season run, Christopher Judge — who plays the muscle-bound alien Teal'c — is returning to the franchise on Stargate Atlantis (tonight at 10 pm/ET, Sci Fi). Judge talked to us about keeping up with a kid half his age, getting "back in the sandbox" and his new project.
TV Guide: So how did your visit to Stargate Atlantis come about?
Christopher Judge: It's something that the fans have talked about for a long time — probably since the Ronon character [played by Jason Momoa] first appeared. When they approached me about it, I said, "Sure." Then they said, "You'll have a few fight scenes with Ronon, because the fans would love that." And I said, "Well, you know Jason is almost 20 years younger than Chris." I had seen his previous fight work and I didn't think I could keep up. When they said they'd get me a stunt double, stupidly my pride took hold of me. So we started working out, and I was like, "What am I doing? This kid's twice as fast as I am!"
