Close Up: Rachel Luttrell



May 13, 2008 (Actors)

Teyla Emmagan has shown that she can cope with anything the Pegasus galaxy throws at her – but what about motherhood? Rachel Luttrell discusses the changes that season five brings for her character.

A brief excerpt:

Teyla has faced many terrifying situations in her time as a part of the Atlantis crew: she’s been kidnapped by Michael, had her mind invaded by a Wraith Queen and faced an erupting volcano to name but a few. But this year, the Athosian has something a little more fundamentally challenging to deal with – becoming a parent.

“I think she’s completely changed,” reveals actress Rachel Luttrell, speaking from set during the filming of episode five, ‘Ghost in the Machine’. “Teyla is now a working Momma! She’s had to completely deal with a shift in priorities. She’s decided to re-join the team, but it was a large question for her. It was something that she had to spend a considerable amount of time mulling over. Now, every time she leaves the base, she’s aware of the fact that she might not be coming home to be with her son. So things are very different.”
