Don't expect to see the Wraith, the Asgard or any other humanoid aliens from Stargate Sg-1 or Stargate Atlantis turning up in the new Stargate series, Sgu: Stargate Universe. Brad Wright, the executive producer and co-creator of Syfy's new show, told Canada.com that the extraterrestrials in the show won't look just like humans hiding behind latex masks.
"One thing we decided, in our pursuit of realism, was to step away from rubber-faced, English-speaking aliens, and you will see none of those in the new show," Wright said. "We will run into aliens. They're just not going to be human, latex-faced, English-speaking aliens."
The show will also have less "techno-babble" and put more emphasis on the characters than the two series that preceded it, according to Wright.
"When we were conceiving the idea for this, we definitely felt that, in some ways, Atlantis and Sg-1 had become a little bit too far into their mythologies,...
