Quick chat with Battlestar's Seelix

SFX spoke to model, filmmaker and actress Jen Halley about her character Diana Seelix when we caught up with her at Starfury's Battlestar Galactica convention in December.

The rest of this interview will be appearing in our amazing Battlestar Galactica-themed special issue, on sale Wednesday 4 March with posters and gifts! But we thought you might like this brief snippet as a little treat to get you in the mood.

SFX: How did you get on with the rest of the Battlestar cast?
Halley: "I always loved coming in early to watch Mary McDonnell and Edward James Olmos. They were remarkable to watch, and it was just like a lesson; a little acting class. And it was interesting because there were so many people, so many actors, and they all had their different styles. It was really good for me to sit and watch people's preparation, or how they worked. It was really great because you had a ton of people to watch. You just never wanted to be the one that let everyone down, you know?"
