Meaney is most recognizable to sci-fi fans as Chief Miles O'Brien, who was a recurring character on Star Trek: The Next Generation before heading to Deep Space Nine as a series regular. The Dublin, Ireland-born actor has also appeared in such films as "Con Air," "Far and Away," and "The Last of the Mohicans."

While the identity of Meaney's character is not yet known, we do know that the mid-season episodes "Underground," "The Storm," and "The Eye" will involve a single story arc. The Atlantis team attempts to form an alliance with a people called the Genii, led by a man named Cowen, who are less than eager to join forces with them in opposing the Wraith.

Meaney joins the ranks of Star Trek regulars Armin Shimmerman, Rene Auberjonois, Marina Sirtis, John Billingsley, Jolene Blalock, and Robert Picardo, each of whom have previously guest starred on Stargate.
