VILLAINS NEVER DIE
GateWorld talks with David Palffy
Only one Stargate SG-1 villain could top the sinister Sokar, who made a memorable appearance in Season Three's "Jolinar's Memories" and "The Devil You Know." That would be the half-ascended Goa'uld Anubis, one of the biggest threats the team ever faced.
The same man is behind both classic Stargate villains: David Palffy. GateWorld caught up with the actor at August's official Stargate convention in Chicago, hosted by Creation Entertainment. In this interview the actor talks about wrapping up Anubis's storyline, jokes about what made the Goa'uld evil, and hints at what he is working on now.
Our video interview with David Palffy runs approximately 11 minutes, and requires QuickTime 7.0 or higher. The interview is also available at GateWorld Play! The interview is also transcribed at the link above.
A brief excerpt:
GW: Do you personally believe that either character is evil per se? Or do you believe in their mind sets there were justifications for their actions?
DP: No. Because both of them had very bad childhoods. They were orphans. And the fact is, in both instances, their mothers were quite mean to them. Of course they didn't have fathers, so they had a certain problem in that respect. And that's one of the reasons why they both had a lot of problems with women. They weren't able to deal with this. That's the thing. They were into other aliens, other life forms. But we won't go there, because this is not for the Internet. It's perhaps for a story book or someone's insane sense of reality like my own.
