ming-na joins the cast of sgu: stargate universe

Some brief casting news... Ming-Na and Lou Diamond Phillips are among the names in the cast of the new show SGU: Stargate Universe, the latest series in the long-running sci-fi franchise: La Bamba, Black Canary, A Doc And A Smallvillian Join Stargate.

The drama follow survivors of a base attack who find themselves on a ship that cannot return to Earth. The group struggles to survive on the mysterious journey. Phillips will play Colonel Telford, the leader of the crew, and Ming-Na will play Camille Wray, a high-ranking human resource executive.

The series is scheduled to debut in October on the Sci-Fi Channel. You know, I was never really into Stargate SG-1 or Stargate: Atlantis, but these shows -- based on the 1994 feature film -- have been hugely successful. I might have to tune in to see what the fuss is about.
