Get ready, Stargate fans. It’s almost time to return to the universe with a brand new story: Stargate Origins. The digital series turns back the clock to explore the past of Catherine Langford, a character who is absolutely crucial to what the Stargate program becomes. The Stargate film introduced us to her as a young girl and as an older woman, and Origins lands in between. Ellie Gall is starring as Catherine, and while we’ve seen her in the role in a behind-the-scenes teaser for the series, she takes center stage in the first photos from the Stargate Origins setâphotos we get to exclusively share with you.

Look at her costume! I can’t help but think of Indiana Jones and Marion Ravenwood all in one. The period vibe continues in more photos of the cast, including Catherine’s father Professor Langford, as portrayed by Connor Trinneer.

And those aren’t the only exclusive images from the set we have to share. Jump through the gate to the gallery below (you won’t need a DHD to get back) and view more photos from Origins, including a look at the new characters Beal (Philp Alexander) and Wasif (Shvan Aladdin), as well as director Mercedes Bryce Morgan at work. The series will be airing exclusively on the new digital platform Stargate Command and is slated to debut in 2018.
I am here for the period setting with the combination of the Stargate and maybe space (hopefully). What do you think about the first images from Stargate Origins? Share your thoughts in the comments.
