CHRISTOPHER JUDGE: Wild Stargate Stories, Freedom from Forgiveness & Acting Out of Spite

Chris Judge (Stargate SG-1, God of War) joins us this week for an open, honest, and forthcoming conversation about the pain in his past and how he’s been able to not only overcome it throughout his career, but also use it to his advantage when portraying characters like Teal’c in Stargate SG-1 and Kratos in God of War. Chris shares his tumultuous upbringing with an abusive father, chilling stories where he avoided tragedy, and how he’s been able to break the cycle of violence. We also talk about the coincidental story that helped him land Stargate SG-1, the best parts of working as Kratos, and his journey leaving football stardom for Hollywood.

Om Podcasten

I’m Michael Rosenbaum, I’ve spent the better part of the last two decades in and out of film and television - mostly known for playing the bald dude on the show Smallville. I’m the guy that you probably don’t know by name, but when you see my face you might say “oh, that guy from that thing.” I’ve befriended some of the most talented people in the business, but it wasn’t until I started inviting them into my home that I realized, I didn’t really know these people. What started as me having some fun, quickly evolved into something I’ve fallen in love with. What I’ve discovered is that all these people aren’t that different from you and me. They have the same insecurities and flaws that we all deal with every day. In a dark, yet enlightening way... I find a lot of comfort in that. I invite you all to join me while I get inside each of these fascinating people.
