• READ: Carlyle commits to ‘Stargate Universe’
Robert Carlyle has revealed that he plans to remain part of the Stargate Universe cast for the foreseeable future.
The actor told Collider that he was still enjoying playing the part of Dr. Nicholas Rush in the second season of the show.
“It didn’t worry me that I was going to get involved in something that was long-running,” he explained. “It’s easy enough to say that in season two. I don’t know how I’m going to feel next year or [the year after]. But at the moment I’m enjoying it a great deal.”
He added: “The premise of the show still stimulates and excites me. I’m enjoying going to work in the morning [and] that can’t always be said. So as long as that continues, I’ll keep doing it.”
Carlyle also explained that he had struggled with the morally ambiguous nature of his character.
He said: “[Rush] is a tricky character to play because he is so unlikeable at times that you have to walk a very thin line not to alienate the audience entirely from him. You have to throw the audience a bone!”
The second season of Stargate Universe begins September 28 on the SyFy network.
