New Interview With Torri Higginson At Gateworld

For more than a year she has entertained, delighted, and inspired Stargate Atlantis viewers as the can-do Dr. Elizabeth Weir. Having recently averting a drawn-out Wraith assault on the Ancient city of Atlantis, actress Torri Higginson sat down with GateWorld at The Bridge Studios in Vancouver, British Columbia, where Atlantis is filmed.

In this interview Torri talks about the challenges of playing a strong female leader, the growth of her character over the show's first season, and her hopes for the current year -- including her desire for a more developed relationship with Rachel Luttrell's Teyla Emmagan. She also talks about sharing power with Colonel Steven Caldwell, and takes time to poke fun at co-star David Nykl and the development she hopes will emerge between Weir and Dr. Zelenka.
