Rainbow Sun Francks Stargate Atlantis

The boyishly good-looking young officer once served as the Stargate Atlantis team`s military second-in-command. After becoming addicted to a Wraith enzyme, he went rogue. He utilized a number of unethical and unorthodox strategies in his guerilla war against the Wraith, until he went missing during an assault on a Wraith hive ship.

Toronto-born Rainbow Sun Francks is a triple-threat talent: a songwriter and producer for the hip-hop group The Oddities, a top VJ for Canada`s MuchMusic channel and a Gemini-nominated actor. Maybe it`s something in his genes: He`s the son of musician, artist, activist and actor Don Franks (best known to TV viewers as Walter in USA Network`s La Femme Nikita) and dancer Lili Francks, and the brother of actress and musician Cree Summer (Winifred "Freddie" Brooks on the TV series A Different World, and the voice of Rugrats` Suzie Carmichael, and of Princess Kida in the Disney animated feature Atlantis: The Lost Empire and much more).

The African-Canadian Francks played Frank Johnson in two of the Black Fox series of TV-movie Westerns, The Price of Peace and Good Men and Bad. He co-starred in the acclaimed 1997 CBC telefilm The Planet of Junior Brown, adapted from the Newberry Award-winning novel, and was nominated for a Gemini, the Canadian Emmy-equivalent, for the 1999 telefilm One Heart Broken Into Song, a drama about Nova Scotia`s segregated black community in the 1930s. Other films and telefilms include 2000`s Love Come Down and Love Song.
