MGM Web site unveils SGU’s alien race

The folks behind Stargate Universe have been promising a new and very alien race for the show, soon to be discovered by the crew of the Destiny.  No bumpy-headed humanoids played by Vancouver actors for the deepest reaches of the universe.

The MGM trailer for the second half of Season One revealed what the aliens look like, for the first time anywhere.  But that was one shot, at an angle and from a distance.  What do the CG beings look like up-close and personal?

MGM is now showing them off on their official Stargate Web site with the profile image below:

What do you think?

Tune in to see the new baddies in action in “Space,” this week’s hotly anticipated mid-season premiere!  It airs at 9 p.m. (E/P) on Syfy in the United States, and 10 p.m. Eastern on SPACE in Canada.

  • should've gone with muppets like with 'Farscape', their aliens were always more believable than any CGI creation

  • I think that's really cool, but I don't like it when MGM and Sci-Fi (oops SyFy) reveal these things. Does anyone remember The Atlantis episode The Lost Tribe? SyFy revealed who/what was inside the suits before the episode aired in both a picture and preview clip (without warning too). It totally ruined the big reveal for me. It irritates me when the network and/or studios release spoilers like this without any regard for people who want to go into it without prior knowledge.

  • I just wonder in how many episodes those aliens will appear in season 1. Will they only appear in "Space" or also in other episodes? Does anyone know more about it?

  • Whoops, I guess these aliens aren't rubber faced?
    2 Eyes - Check
    2 Aural Sensory areas (same vicinity as humanoid) - Check
    1 Mouth, with teeth - check
    Brow ridge, Jaw Ridge, Cheekbone ridge - Check
    Alien? sure, for halloween maybe - Check

  • Nah, to much Alien/Aliens for me (yes those films were good but I like 'cute' scifi, compare Asgard).
