How STARGATE Rebuilt and Improved the Movie's Iconic Prop (Dial the Gate)

ONE OF THE BIGGEST CHANGES between the original Stargate feature film and the television series is often overlooked by casual viewers: it's the gate itself.
The prop on STARGATE SG-1 was completely rebuilt from scratch, after the gate from the movie was retrieved from storage and found to be in very poor condition. Production designer Richard Hudolin and his team gave the new Stargate its signature look, with some subtle changes (symbols on the inner track are raised) and some more obvious (the chevrons glow with red jewels).
In his upcoming appearance on "Dial the Gate" Hudolin talks about finding the original gate, and designing something new and updated for the television series. He also talks about making the Stargate fully functional, able to spin under the power of a motorized mechanism ... which the original gate actually couldn't do.
This clip is from Dial the Gate's full-length, 90-minute conversation with Richard. The full interview premieres Sunday, August 20, and you can watch it here: • 216: Richard Hudolin, Production Desi...
