Odysseus Rocked Bacic's Feet


Steve Bacic, who co-stars in the upcoming SCI FI Channel original movie Odysseus: Voyage to the Underworld, told SCI FI Wire that the shoot was, quite literally, a rocky affair.

Bacic--a veteran genre actor whose credits include Stargate SG-1, Battlestar Galactica: Razor and Flash Gordon--plays Eurylochus, who is disagreeable and a coward in Greek mythology but is "courageous and honorable" as the "right-hand man" to Odysseus in Voyage to the Underworld.

"Ask anyone who did this film and walked in those damn sandals, and they'll say, 'Oh, my God, were my feet killing me,'" Bacic said in an interview... One shot in particular, Bacic added, stood out. "[Director] Terry Ingram was doing this long shot of us walking in over the sands," he says. "It must have been at least 400 meters. At first it wasn't so bad because it was sand, [but] then you'd hit a rock and get it lodged in there real good. We did this over and over. It got to a point where we were just laughing about it, because we would take pleasure in each other's pain." Odysseus: Voyage to the Underworld premieres April 12 at 9 p.m. ET/PT on SCI FI.

Blu-ray Firefly Set In Works



Jewel Staite, who played Kaylee on the much-loved Fox SF series Firefly, told conventioneers in Australia that a Blu-ray special edition of the short-lived show is coming soon, according to a report on TV Guide online.

Speaking at the 2008 Supernova Pop Culture Expo in Melbourne, Staite (Stargate Atlantis) said: "I just heard that they're re-releasing Firefly, a special edition of Firefly, in a box set. They actually asked me if I was able to come down to L.A. and do a commentary in the spring. So I think that would be fun."

TV Guide reported that the release she mentioned is indeed on its way to North America and will actually be coming out on Blu-ray high-definition disc. No timetable has been given for the disc's release.

Cosmotopia: Sci-Fi celebrity blog from Michael Shanks

2:43 PM PDT, April 10, 2008

We've already mentioned it in this blog, but here's the official
lowdown. Amazon Cosmotopia is our new destination for all things
science fiction, including movies, television, books, video games,
toys, electronic gadgets, and more. Right now we're featuring a whole
bunch of DVDs on sale, 4-for-3 books, 99-cent downloads, and more
deals, but it's really intended to be a place you can go year-round to
find cool stuff and talk to other sci-fi fans. Today for your reading
pleasure, we have an exclusive celebrity blog from Michael Shanks, who
plays Dr. Daniel Jackson in Stargate: The Ark of Truth, the follow-up
to the Stargate SG-1 series. Then after you read his comments, you can
watch a clip from the show. Keep an eye on this blog space or in
Amazon Cosmotopia for more sci-fi celebrity content this month. --David


Amazon: Was there one experience that really turned you on to sci-fi?

Shanks: The one movie that really opened my eyes--and that of my
entire generation--was Star Wars, which I saw in the theater when I
was seven years old. The movies were timeless and cool; they had the
sexiness, the action, and stories both epic and personal, that still
holds up today. They weren't "cartoon-y" like a Buck Rogers!

INTERVIEWS

BEAU BRIDGES INTERVIEW

Friday, April 11

by Captain


Beau Bridges is a legend. The fact that we can speak to him at SCI FI PI is astounding. Son of Hollywood legend Lloyd Bridges, brother of Jeff Bridges, Beau has won so many acting awards over his illustrious career and garnered such a reputation that it boggles the mind to think that he actually plays a character on a Sci Fi show. But not only that, he loves it!

Playing General Hank Landry in the last two seasons of Stargate; SG1, and in the new Stargate DVD films, The Ark of Truth and Continuum, he has garnered a new set of fans who have responded enthusiastically to the steadfast military man with a twinkle in his eye. He spoke with us about Stargate, the people who work there and how to succeed in 'the family business'.

ABC to Wipe Out with new reality show
Posted Mar 28th 2008 10:24AM by Allison Waldman

If you love America's Funniest Home Videos -- and I know a lot of you do because the show's been running since 1989 -- you're the likely target audience for something new from the network. ABC plans to produce Wipe Out, a new reality competition from producer Matt Kunitz (Fear Factor).

John Anderson, a familiar face from ESPN's SportsCenter has been tapped at the host alongside Jill Wagner. Jill, by the way, is an actress. She played Larrin on Stargate: Atlantis and Krista Starr on Blade: The Series.
