About Jeri Ryan: Jeri Lynn Ryan is an American actress best known for her role as the liberated Borg, Seven of Nine, on Star Trek: Voyager, for which she won two Saturn Awards.
That's what makes a character interesting from an actor's perspective - the more screwed up, the better.
The entire season, the show had never been aired for more than three weeks. You can't get an audience that way. They would never promo the show for the next week.
I have a lot of fun with guns, especially the M-16, but my favourite is my little .22. It fits nicely in the palm of your hand. I do limit myself to blanks.
I started by looking everything up in a Star Trek dictionary so I knew what I was talking about, but you can't do that because they talk in circles, and half of it doesn't make sense, so you'll just end up driving yourself more insane.
The whole sex symbol or babe thing doesn't bother me.
There is a very large chunk of our population who firmly believe in extraterrestrials.
They said that Seven was a former Borg who had been human and had been assimilated. She was regaining her humanity. I had no interest in this character.
This was truly guerilla filmmaking. We shot out in the middle of nowhere in a place called Delta Flats, where basically every day was some new minor catastrophe.
West Hollywood is predominantly gay, so every man that came into the grocery store was shopping for his boyfriend.
I was raised all over. Kansas, Hawaii, Georgia, Texas and Kentucky, by the time I was 11.
I had never seen much of Star Trek, or any other science fiction, before I was cast. But Seven's wonderful.
