What The Cast Of Stargate SG-1 Is Doing Today
Description
A lot of time has passed since Stargate SG-1 ended its run in 2007. Like most fans, you're probably wondering what happened to the actors from the series since their days at Stargate Command. Here's what they're up to today.
Few actors have the honor of playing the main role in one successful television show, let alone two, but Richard Dean Anderson is a member of this short list. Anderson played the beloved protagonist of the hit series MacGyver in the '80s and early '90s. In 1997, he returned to television as Colonel Jack O'Neill in Stargate SG-1. O'Neill is pulled out of early retirement when the Stargate device is activated and aliens come through attacking Air Force personnel.
After a rescue mission, O'Neill becomes the commander of the military unit Stargate SG-1. The team explores new planets through the Stargate with the hopes of attaining new technologies and allies. They need to put together a team capable of defeating the powerful and sinister Goa'uld, who intend to enslave humanity.
O'Neill frequently cracks sarcastic jokes, even in dire situations, often bringing an appreciated dose of humor to an otherwise serious character. Despite his comedic side, O'Neill takes his job very seriously, often risking his life to save his unit. He is also deeply haunted by the death of his young son, who accidentally shot himself with O'Neill's pistol.
After eight seasons, Anderson stepped down as the main character and took on a smaller role during the last two seasons as a guest star. After the conclusion of the Stargate SG-1 franchise, Anderson left the spotlight and only appeared in a handful of TV show episodes here and there, his last appearance coming in a 2013 episode of the sitcom Don't Trust the B in Apartment 23. While Anderson has attended several conventions over the last few years, he largely remains quiet about his personal life and has essentially retired.
