Interview  |  Claudia Black
Going one beyond

PictureDo you think science fiction is challenging for actors?

I still think sci fi actors are underestimated by audiences who may not know what's requried of them. They work even faster on Stargate than we did on Farscape, but Stargate often get their scripts on time [giggles].There's a reason why Patrick Stewart was hired to do the job that he did, even though he came from a Shakespearian background. You have to understand how to play the stakes for heightened drama, and you learn that or die in theatre. While it's a little bit safer on television or on a film set to call cut and go again, you don't have the time, so a disciplined actor is really going to save the producer time and money if they can be a one-take wonder.

So it takes someone with high intelligence and dedication and a lot of discipline.
