Elyse Levesque Exclusive On Set Interview STARGATE UNIVERSE

by Steve 'Frosty' Weintraub    Posted: November 1st, 2010 at 12:15 pm

At the beginning of September, I was invited – along with a few others – to the Vancouver set of Stargate Universe.  While you may have thought I was done posting on set interviews, I’ve got one more and it’s with Elyse Levesque.

During the interview, Levesque talks about all the changes her character (Chloe Armstrong) goes through during season two.  In addition, we talked about filming on the incredible sets of the Destiny ship, what’s her process with getting scripts, and we even covered social media like Twitter and Facebook.  It’s a very relaxed interview that was done in one of the Destiny hallways. Check it out after the jump:

Alaina Huffman and Jamil Walker Smith On Set Video Interview STARGATE UNIVERSE

by Steve 'Frosty' Weintraub    Posted: October 6th, 2010 at 11:33 am

Now that the first two episodes of Stargate Universe season 2 have aired, I feel a lot better posting the interview I did with Alaina Huffman and Jamil Walker Smith on set last month.  That’s because during the interview, Walker Smith was very open about subject matter that could be considered spoilers.  Since a lot of what he said gets revealed in the first two episodes, if you haven’t seen the first them, you might want to skip this interview until you’re caught up.  However, most of the “spoilers” are towards the end of the interview, so you could always just watch the first half.

During the interview, they also talked about what’s going on with their characters during season two, Huffman reveals when she figured out she was pregnant in real life (it was during an eating scene on Destiny), what do they hope to find on Destiny as more of the ship gets explored, and so much more.  However, while we talked about a lot of subjects during the interview, I think the one thing you’ll really take away after watching this is how different Jamil Walker Smith is from his character on the show.  You’ll see…

A Behind the Scenes Tour of STARGATE UNIVERSE with Producer Brad Wright; Plus the New Destiny Bridge Set Revealed!

If you’re a fan of Stargate Universe and wish you could walk around the Vancouver soundstages where they film the show, you’re going to love the video I edited together.  That’s because last month when I visited the set, executive producer and co-creator Brad Wright gave all a behind the scenes tour of the various soundstages to the visiting journalists.  He showed us the gate room, Eli’s room, all the hallways and rooms of the Destiny ship, the medical quarters, and the highlight: we got to see the brand new Bridge set that was built for season two!  Even though the bridge hasn’t been revealed on the show, you can see it right now after the jump.

And while getting to see the various soundstages was cool, I think the best part was getting to do the tour with Brad Wright.  That’s because as one of the creators of the show, Wright knows the secrets of every set and he revealed everything as we walked around.  I promise you…if you’re a fan of SGU, you will get to see a side of the Destiny ship that you have never seen on TV:

Justin Louis and Brian J. Smith On Set Interview STARGATE UNIVERSE Season 2

by Steve 'Frosty' Weintraub    Posted: September 28th, 2010 at 3:30 pm

With Stargate Universe returning with new episodes tonight on Syfy,  I was invited – along with a few other online journalists – to visit the Vancouver set so I could interview the entire cast and get a close up look at the Destiny ship.  As a big fan of SGU, it was very cool to see the Destiny up close and also interview everyone who brings the show to life.  While I won’t write about the big spoilers I learned, I have no problem saying season two builds on the momentum of the first, and it’s heading towards a big revelation.  Trust me, by the end of season two, a lot of information about the Destiny will be revealed.

Anyhow, over the past week I’ve posted interviews with David Blue and Elyse Levesque, Robert Carlyle, and producer Brad Wright.  Now it’s time for Justin Louis and Brian J. Smith. During the interview they discussed what’s coming up on SGU in season two, Louis talks about a huge 12 page dialogue scene that he did with Robert Carlyle for an upcoming episode, and a lot more.  Hit the jump to watch what they had to say.  You’ll definitely notice how different Justin Louis is from his character on the show…

Robert Carlyle On Set Video Interview STARGATE UNIVERSE Season 2

With Stargate Universe returning with new episodes on Tuesday, September 28 on Syfy,  I was invited – along with a few other online journalists – to visit the Vancouver set a few weeks ago. While on set I got to see a number of the SGU soundstages, interview the entire cast, and I was also able to check out the new Bridge set that was built for season two.  As a big fan of SGU, it was very cool to see the Destiny ship up close and also interview everyone who brings the show to life.

Over the past few days I’ve been posting some of the interviews I did on set (David Blue and Elyse Levesque, producer Brad Wright) and now it’s time for Robert Carlyle.  During the very revealing interview, Carlyle was very open about what’s coming up on show.  If you’re a fan of SGU, I think you’ll really enjoy hearing what he had to say.  Hit the jump for more:

Anyway, while on set I was able to speak with co-creator/writer/executive producer Brad Wright. Actually, I got to speak with him in the Gate room on the Destiny ship (which was very cool). During my exclusive interview we talked about what’s coming up on season 2, how far they’ve planned the show,  what other original Stargate characters are visiting SGU (he reveals McKay and Woolsey from Stargate Atlantis are stopping by) and so much more.  If you’re a fan of SGU, you’ll learn a lot about what’s coming up after the break:

First Trailer for STARGATE UNIVERSE Season 1.5 – Premieres April 2 on Syfy

by Steve 'Frosty' Weintraub    Posted: March 11th, 2010 at 8:33 am

Syfy has released the first trailer for Stargate Universe season 1.5 – which premieres April 2.  If you missed the first ten episodes, I won’t spoil what happens in this intro, all I’ll say is the second half of the first season looks like it’s got a lot more action and a major issue for the crew to overcome.

As I’ve said a number of times, I’m a big fan of SGU and think it’s definitely worth checking out.  If you missed the first ten episodes, Syfy is airing is airing an all-day marathon of the first ten episodes on April 2nd ( starting at 11 a.m.) and it leads into the new first episode of season 1.5.

Hit the jump to check out the new trailer.  If you’ve been watching the show, you’ll love it.

Collider Visits the Set of STARGATE UNIVERSE; Plus Watch an On Set Interview with the Cast and Executive Producer Brad Wright

by Steve 'Frosty' Weintraub    Posted: October 11th, 2009 at 11:50 am

As I said last week when I gave away some autographed posters, I watched the first few episodes of “Stargate Universe” and was impressed. I thought “SGU” has a great concept and if they do it right, it could be some really cool TV. To help promote the show, Syfy held a press day on the Vancouver set and I was lucky enough to go.

While I usually have to transcribe on-set interviews, Syfy gave us all DVDs of the event! This means you can watch the entire conversation with the cast. And now that many of you have seen the first two episodes of “SGU”, I think you’ll really enjoy seeing the cast talk about their characters and what’s coming up. Hit the jump to see the interview and read my thoughts about the set of “Stargate Universe”:

STARGATE UNIVERSE Comic-Con Update – Plus David Blue Discusses His Character Eli Wallace

by Steve 'Frosty' Weintraub    Posted: July 8th, 2009 at 10:09 am

If you’re going to Comic-Con in a few weeks and are curious about the new “Stargate Universe” show, I’ve got some information for you. On Friday at 10:30am in Ballroom 20, the cast and creators (Robert Carlyle, Brian J. Smith, Elyse Levesque, David Blue, Alaina Huffman, Jamil Walker Smith, Ming-Na and series co-creators Brad Wright and Robert Cooper) are going to be doing a Q&A. But more important than the Q&A, I’ve been told you’ll be able to see a huge first look at the show. Will it be the entire premiere episode? I don’t know. But with the need for any new show to get noticed, I’m sure the footage being shown is going to be special.

And one last thing, after the jump you can watch a short video of David Blue explain his character Eli Wallace. The video also includes some footage from the show.
