Lt. Ford is making a return! At least in convention form.

Stargate Atlantis actor Rainbow Sun Francks — who portrayed the boyish and charming Lt. Aiden Ford — will make an appearance at Creation Entertainment’s Gateway: A 25th Anniversary Salute To Stargate fan convention. The event takes place later this month in Chicago, Illinois.

“Gateway” is Creation Entertainment’s first Chicago-based Stargate convention since 2016.

Francks joins actors Michael Shanks, Amanda Tapping, Joe Flanigan, Torri Higginson, Paul McGillion, Tony Amendola, and more in a star-studded, dynamite weekend at the Westin O’Hare Hotel.

Francks will appear on-stage during the weekend. He’ll also be available for paid photo ops, and will host a table in the vendor’s room to meet with fans and sign autographs.

Photo ops with Francks go for $40 (USD). You can purchase tickets for the three-day convention at CreationEnt.com

Also noted in a recent Gateway convention update is a change of appearance date for Stargate Atlantis and Stargate Origins actor Connor Trinneer (Michael, Professor Langford). Due to a change in his filming schedule, Trinneer will appear Saturday instead of Friday for his on-stage appearance, autographs, photo ops, and VIP meet & greet.
