Writer Jane Espenson has confirmed that John de Lancie has been cast in Torchwood: Miracle Day. John de Lancie has been a fan favorite for many years, having portrayed the mysterious Q in Star Trek: The Next Generation, and Frank Simmons in Stargate SG-1. It is unclear at this point what role de Lancie will be fulfilling.
Production for Torchwood: Miracle Day is still continuing, and has been described as being “mindblowing,” according to Captain Jack Harkness himself, John Barrowman.
Barrowman is reunited with co-star Eve Myles in Miracle Day, as they investigate a worldwide phenomenon that has caused human beings to stop dying. Joining the Torchwood team for the new adventure is Mekhi Phifer and Esther Drummond.
Torchwood: Miracle Day will premiere on July 8, 2011, while related show Doctor Who will be on its mid-season break.
Man, I *hate* *hate* *hate* spoilers and putting them in headline is perhaps the worst offense of all. This article alone is making me cancel my subscription to the GoD emails.
Where exactly is the *Spoiler* may I ask? That an actor was cast in a tv show? That’s not a spoiler. The role is NOT even given. “It is unclear at this point what role de Lancie will be fulfilling.”
