After taking a break the past few years, the long-running Stargate franchise
is coming back to life — albeit not in any form fans of small-screen
adventures SG-1 or Atlantis might recognize. So, what does the series’
original star think about the pending big-screen reboot?

The Globe and Mail caught up with Amanda Tapping, who played Samantha Carter
in both Stargate television shows for more than a decade, to talk about
original producers Dean Devlin and Roland Emmerich’s plans to start with a
clean slate and a new film. Tapping said she’s definitely interested in
being involved, though her phone isn’t exactly ringing off the hook.

Check out an excerpt from the interview below:

“Interest? Yes. Involvement? No. Dean Devlin and Roland Emmerich have taken
the property back. I don’t think they disliked the television series so
much. But it wasn’t their vision. The rights had gone to MGM. Brad Wright
and Jon Glassner got a hold of it and ran with it, successfully. I mean: 17
seasons of television. But I think Emmerich and Devlin are probably happy to
have it back. Certainly no one has been calling any of the Stargate actors,
saying, ‘Hey. I’ve got a part for you.’ It would be nice, but no.”

If you’re unfamiliar, Devlin and Emmerich made the original 1994 film the
series was based on, and their original plan for a trilogy of films was
scuttled in favor of a television show with a different creative team. Now
that SG-1 has finally run its course, and spinoff shows Atlantis and Universe
are also off the air, the duo hope to reclaim the franchise and bring it back
to the big screen with a creative reset.

We’ve already debated the pros and cons at length, and we’re obviously
excited to see the ‘Gate returning — but it’s still a shame it’ll come at
the cost of all those years of fun stories and continuity.

What do you think? Would you like to see a few familiar faces show up, even
if it’s just in cameo roles?
