Gateway Chicago Convention Adds Three More Stargate Actors

Stargate Atlantis

A pair of Atlantis scientists and an Abydonian freedom fighter are set to appear at the upcoming Stargate fan event next year.

Today event organizer Creation Entertainment announced that actors David Hewlett (“Rodney McKay”), David Nykl (“Radek Zelenka”), and Alexis Cruz (“Skaara”) have been booked for the “Gateway” Stargate convention in the Chicago area. It takes place June 26 to 28, 2020, at the Westin O’Hare in Rosemont, Illinois.

Alexis Cruz first played “Skaara” 25 years ago, in the original “Stargate” feature film.

Hewlett is scheduled to appear on Saturday. Nykl and Cruz’s appearances are still to be determined. All three will be taking photo ops and signing autographs.

Gateway is shaping up to be a major event for Stargate, with multiple headliners and a reunion of much of the Stargate Atlantis cast. Also appearing during the weekend are Michael Shanks, Amanda Tapping, Ben Browder, Joe Flanigan, Rachel Luttrell, Jewel Staite, and Gary Jones.

The all-inclusive Gold Weekend Admission Packages are on sale now (starting at $649 for the entire weekend, including selected autographs).
