Stargate fans rejoice! Richard Dean Anderson has signed on to appear in the Stargate direct to dvd film, Stargate: Continuum. Continuum will continue to story of the SG-1 team after the end of the series this year.

Right now we’re unsure if this is a starring role, or just a minor cameo in the film…but we do know that he’ll be joining cast members Ben Browder and Amanda Tapping in shooting on location in the sub-zero climate of the Arctic according to the Sci-fi wire.

From the Sci-fi Article:

“We’re thrilled to have Richard join us for Stargate: Continuum,” Brad Wright, co-creator of the Stargate franchise and writer/executive producer for the latest installment for the property, said in a statement. “As Gen. Jack O’Neill, Richard brings both a sense of history and familiarity to the continuing adventures of the Stargate team. And we all recognize his value as the much-loved hero among the Stargate fan base.”
