August 20, 2013: Sarah Douglas Attending Scandinavian Sci-Fi, Game and Film Convention
Posted by Neil Cole
Actress Sarah Douglas will be appearing as a featured guest at the 2013 Scandinavian Sci-Fi, Game and Film Convention which takes place October 12th & 13th at the Sundspärlan Convention Hall in Helsinborg, Sweden.
Sarah is best remembered for her role in "Superman: The Movie" and "Superman: II" as the Kryptonian villainess Ursa. Other memorable roles include Queen Taramis in "Conan: The Destroyer" and Pamela in the original 1984 television mini-series "V".
Even though Sarah was born and raised in the UK in Stratford-Upon-Avon, and knew that she wanted to act, she did try to expand options available to her. She worked in a factory and for a time, also in a sterilising department of a hospital. She briefly moved to France and also undertook a teacher training course in English and Drama. However, these were all abandoned in favour of acting.
In 2006, she was reunited with many of her Superman co-stars in Los Angeles as the new version of Superman II (known as "Superman II: The Richard Donner Cut") was released with previously unseen footage. At the same time, a new Superman DVD boxset was released, featuring an interview with Douglas.
Other guests scheduled to be in attendance alongside Douglas include Kenny Baker (R2D2 - "Star Wars"), Kevin Sorbo (Hercules - "Hercules: The Legendary Adventures", Captain Dylan Hunt - "Andromeda"), and David Warner (Sark - "TRON", Gorkon - "Star Trek VI - The Undiscovered Country").
