Interview  |  Claudia Black
Working for the enemy

Picture What was it like playing Vala on Stargate?

I found it interesting. I only did my scenes with Michael Shanks, I didn't really meet any of the other actors, but I found that he was, professionally, very similar to Ben.

They were very open-minded on the set about the banter between me and Michael and what we could improvise if required, but it was a very well-written episode.

And there's a possibility you might reprise the character?

It was funny because the crew said to me at the time, "Your character doesn't die in this episode, so you might come back," and they're very consistent in Stargate, they do bring a lot of guest characters back.

So there's definitely the scope for Vala, and I'll be interested to see what they come up with. And I'll be very interested to see Ben and Micheal Shanks working together.
