Kate Hewlett: More high-stakes
December 5th, 2007 Filed Under Stargate: Atlantis Cast Interview
The official Stargate website interviewed Kate Hewlett, sister of David Hewelett, and the actress who plays Rodney McKay’s sister, Jeannie Miller. Jeannie made her second appearance in last week’s episode of Stargate: Atlantis, Miller’s Crossing.
She talks about when talk of Rodney having a sister was first mentioned back in Letters from Pegasus, “Basically in Letters from Pegasus, David was supposed to mention a brother, and he asked the director and writer if they could change it to his sister. They said that was fine. So he sort of planted the seed, I think – he had a real bee in his bonnet about me coming on the show.”.
Talking about Miller’s Crossing, Kate’s show her enthusiasm, “In this one it’s much more high-stakes,” says Hewlett. “It’s less about how she feels about the situation and more about trying to get out. It’s always so exciting to read a new script. I think Martin is such a fantastic writer. You never know what’s going to happen. And I really like the character so I knew that it would be great. But when I read it, I was really, really excited!”.
She’s hoping to be back for more of Jeannie Miller, fingers crossed! Read the full interview here.
