Former “Battlestar Galactica’’ actress Katee Sackhoff (inset), who famously turned down the role of werewolf Debbie Pelt on “True Blood’’ to work on a Boston-based TV show that, sadly, was never picked up, confirmed via Twitter that she’s in the Worcester area filming the indie movie “Lockdown.’’ The movie, which takes place on a college campus, is being directed by John Stimpson, who’s made a list of small local films. Stimpson’s website says “Lockdown’’ is “a psychological thriller that digs into the idea of the Psychopath Test, and whether it is a valid tool for psychologists, parole officers, or the police.’’ According to the Internet Movie Database, other actors involved in the project include New Hampshire’s own John Shea, and Bart Johnson, who starred with Zac Efron and Vanessa Hudgens in “High School Musical.’’

The Calgary Expo, Canada’s second largest pop culture event, is thrilled to announce that two of science fiction’s most outstanding performers will be attending the 2012 convention. Amanda Tapping (Stargate: SG-1, Sanctuary) and Katee Sackhoff (Battlestar Galactica, 24), will coming to the Expo in 2012, much to the delight of Science Fiction fans around the globe.

Amanda Tapping is a Canadian actress, producer, director and writer who is best known for her role as Samantha Carter in Stargate: SG-1.

“We knew that Stargate SG-1 had a huge following after having Christopher Judge out to the convention in 2011,” says Calgary Expo Director Kandrix Foong. “Bringing in such an accomplished actress and producer such as Amanda Tapping is a real privilege for the Calgary Expo.”

As a winner of the 2009 Women of Vision award, Amanda has become an ambassador of strength, resilience and innovation in the Canadian television industry. Her recent endeavour, Sanctuary, started as a web series but soon exploded onto mainstream television networks. She is also one of the founding members of S4K, Sanctuary for Kids, a charity which works to find relief for children who face exploitation, depravation and adversity from around the world.

Katee Sackhoff is most recognized as the rough n’ tough Capt. Kara Thrace aka Starbuck from Battlestar Galactica. Some of her other roles include appearances in smash hit television shows such as The Big Bang Theory, CSI and 24. She has also used her vocal talents in animation and video games roles such as Halo 3, Batman: Year One and Spider-Man: Edge of Time.
