Teal'c Cuts Loose: The Ultimate Christopher Judge Interview - Part Two

INTERVIEWS

Wednesday, June 18

Christopher Judge is a man who's quick with a laugh, and with a deep resonant voice, it's a booming one at that. Booming. He's not shy of the occasional considered opinion, either.

But for all his success, he is laid back, relaxed and personable, and holds no airs or graces - in fact, the most refreshing and surprising thing about him is his utter candour - as you'll see in Part Two of SCI FI PI's epic interview with the man who is Teal'c.

In this installment, he speaks about (among other things) race relations, Stargate:Continuum, the war in Iraq, Michael Shanks' uncanny impersonations, golf, and why he should have been fired from Stargate SG-1. Something for everyone, really.

Grab another cup of coffee, and read on.

STARGATE:CONTINUUM, UNIVERSE & FEATURE FILMS

Comes in handy as an actor. For you though at the beginning, not that much of an issue - although as the show went on, you had to remember more and more lines.

CJ: "When Rick (Richard Dean Anderson) slowed his schedule down in Season 7, when Lou Gossett was on, and Teal'c became an orator, I would look at this stuff - 'this one scene is more than Teal'c talked in three seasons!' (laughs).

It was weird, because that muscle had kind of atrophied, and it took me a while to restimulate it. It was tough for a while."

What was it like 'going back' to Continuum? Did you have to return to a 'bad guy' place?

CJ: "Well the perception of Teal'c before SG-1 entered the scene was that he was a bad guy, but he had been talking to Bra'tac for years (about rebelling against the evil Goa'uld), but he had to keep the facade of the status quo in order to have these back room machinations going on - so in Continuum it was much the same thing - only Teal'c aligned himself with Ba'al, because Ba'al offered him a chance to free his people. So it's still the same endgame, just a different route to get there."
