Stargate SG-1 star Corin Nemec will be portraying a Starfleet Captain in Star Trek Renegades independent web series.

Corin (birthname Joseph Charles Nemec IV) was born in Little Rock, Arkansas. In 1987, he landed a reoccurring role as Nicky Papadropolis on the television series Webster. Shortly thereafter he made his feature film debut in Francis Ford Coppola's acclaimed Tucker: The Man and His Dream.

After several more television appearances, he earned an Emmy nomination and won the Young Artist Award for his portrayal of Steven Stayner in the television film I Know My Name Is Steven.

Soon after he landed the title role in Parker Lewis Can't Lose, the groundbreaking series which successfully ran for three seasons from 1990 to 1993.

Nemec expanded his resume to include long-form television roles while on hiatus from Parker Lewis. Over the course of his career he has starred in over a dozen television movies and miniseries including the critically acclaimed adaptation of Stephen King's The Stand.

Looking to cast a new character to fill the void left by Daniel Jackson's departure from Stargate SG-1, Nemec was cast as Jonas Quinn for the penultimate season 5 episode "Meridian" and became a series regular in the show's sixth season. In 2004 Nemec returned to cast of Stargate SG-1 for a final episode entitled "Fallout," which he wrote himself. As his first major writing credit, this marked the beginning of the expansion of his career to include writing and producing.

Five Days to Go - Kickstarter needs YOU!

There are five days left in our Kickstarter funding drive. It ends November 26th at 7:21 am EST/4:21 PST. Kickstarter is an all-or-nothing platform - if we don't raise the entire $200,000 by that date, we don't receive a dime. So time is of the essence. We still need to raise just over $18,000 - and you can help us reach that goal! Click here or on the graphic below and pledge - even if it's just $25 (but of course, more is better - and you get way better stuff)!
