13 Mar
Summary
- Jewel Staite noticed her character Jennifer Keller was handcuffed often.
- A Stargate revival series is in development for Prime Video.
- Stargate: Atlantis is currently available for streaming on Hulu.
Actress Jewel Staite, celebrated for her role as Kaylee Frye in Firefly, has recently become aware of a recurring element in her Stargate: Atlantis character, Jennifer Keller. Staite observed that Keller was frequently depicted with her hands bound. This realization came after watching a compilation of such scenes, highlighting Keller's frequent encounters with the damsel-in-distress trope throughout the show's five-season run.
Staite initially appeared on Stargate: Atlantis as a different character before returning as Jennifer Keller, the Chief Medical Officer. Keller was also involved in a notable love triangle with Ronon Dex and Rodney McKay. Fans were left wanting more as the series concluded after five seasons, leaving Keller and McKay's relationship development incomplete.
However, there is potential for fan favorites to return, as a Stargate revival series is currently in development. This new series will maintain the established continuity and will stream exclusively on Prime Video. This development raises the possibility of Staite reprising her role as Jennifer Keller, alongside David Hewlitt as Rodney McKay.
Stargate: Atlantis can currently be streamed via Hulu. Jewel Staite's recent television appearances include a role in Resident Alien Season 4, which is available on both Netflix and Peacock.
