Continuum Season Two begins on the SyFy Channel this Friday, June 7th. Here’s a sneak peek at the exciting new season from two of the stars:
Rachel Nichols (Star Trek, Alias, G.I. Joe: The Rise of Cobra) plays Kiera Cameron, a police officer for a corporate run law enforcement organization in 2077. Kiera has been torn from her family and thrust into our time along with a fanatic group of terrorists from her future.
Erik Knudsen plays Alec Sadler the young computer guru who helps her in the present day but….
SPOILERS from Season One!
In the shocking season one finale we learned Alec grows up to the corporate overlord who is ultimately responsible for Kiera being trapped in the past and losing her family.
Earlier this year at Fan Expo Vancouver – Nichols and Knudsen told me how the future revelation affects their characters bond and sets the drama for the new season.
Watch:
Nichols got her big break as Agent Rachel Gibson on the final season of Alias by J.J. Abrams. (That’s where I became a geek in love with her!)
Nichols now has an impressive reel of film and television roles (Alias, G.I. Joe: The Rise of Cobra, Conan) in which she gets to test her physical limits and kick butt on-screen. I asked Nichols about her favorite action scenes and how the experience has helped as an actress.
Continuum returns to SyFy this Friday, June 7th at 8pm.
Rachel Nichols holds an important role in the Star Trek mythos and sci-fi geeks. Nichols played the gorgeous green-skinned Starfleet cadet who was romanced by Captain Kirk (Chris Pine) and helped him beat the Kobayashi Maru test in the J.J. Abrams Star Trek reboot.
