Jolene Blalock on Typecasting as a Science-Fiction Actress

Features

By GustavoLeao / 20:43, 23 February 2008 / General Genre/SciFi

io9 posted a brief interview with former Star Trek Enterprise actress Jolene Blalock, who plays "tough pilot" Captain Lola Beck in the upcoming Direct-to-DVD sci-fi sequel Starship Troopers Marauder, directed by original Starship Troopers scribe Ed Neurmeier. Here are a few excerpts from the article.

At a panel at Wondercon this weekend, Blalock was asked about her character of Captain Beck, and said "She's a no-nonsense staraight shooter, who shoots from the hip but also has a heart of gold."

Regarding being typecasting as a science-fiction actress because of her role as T'Pol in Enterprise, Blalock said "The reason I've done a lot of science fiction is because my first big job was Star Trek, [so] a lot of the offers i get are science fiction. The universe shines down on me, in a psychobabble way. That's what's inside me, and so that's what the universe offers me."

The full article, with photos of Blalock at Wondercon, can be found here.

GET A LIFE,
will you people? I mean, for crying out loud, it's just a TV show!.... You've turned an enjoyable little job, that I did as a lark for a few years, into a COLOSSAL WASTE OF TIME! -- William Shatner on Saturday Night Live (1986)
