Stargate Actor Guest Stars on 24

Stargate Actor Guest Stars on 24
By: Groshan Fabiola


Actor Michael Shanks takes a break from his anthropologist character on Stargate SG-1 to get a taste of some action on the award-winning series 24 on the episode 1:00 AM–2:00 AM, which will be aired on April 30. His participation on the series 24 will be seen in four episodes, which is part of an arc for season 6.

Shanks will be playing a role different from his Dr. Daniel Jackson role on Stargate Sg-1 as he will be portraying Mark Bishop who is a political lobbyist. Aside from playing a political lobbyist, he will be involved in a secret relationship with Lisa Miller (Kari Matchett), who is the assistant of Vice President Noah Daniels (Powers Boothe). One thing that’s unique about Shank’s participation on 24 is the romantic plot he brings with him, which is something fans hardly ever see on the action-packed series. In fact, this is something that the crew feels awkward about, being giggly and bashful while filming some love scenes.

But overall, he feels pleased to have worked with someone like Matchett. He said, "It was nice to work with somebody like Kari in that kind of capacity, because there was already a rapport there. We're friends from long ago, so it's easier than 'Hello, stranger, nice to meet you. By the way, I'll be taking your clothes off.' There's always an awkwardness on day one."

But even if Shank’s inclusion on 24 is only for a brief period, he considers his work load to be very hectic, unable to squeeze in some time for shooting some scenes for his current project Stargate: Continuum DVD. And although Shanks will appear in at least four episodes of 24, the 36-year old actor will not be doing any scenes with counter terrorist agent Jack Bauer (Kiefer Sutherland), which hints that he is quite far away from danger and will most likely not be killed during his inclusion.
