I remember people saying that he looked like Lee and that he could be Jamie, and I always thought that he we wore make-up, but I didn´t notice he was Ryan either. O_O

Some people thought he was going to be revealed as the final cylon (because he played two characters).

Interesting! I never would have suspected him without knowing about his other character! That would have been cool though, if he was one! hehe!

I'm not sure who Clarice is. I haven't watched the Caprica pilot yet. Was she in that?

Played by Polly Walker, Sister Clarice Willow is one of the main characters. Clarice is the headmistress of the private religious school that most of the teenage characters attend. Officially an adherent of the mainstream polytheist faith, she is secretly a monotheist. Moreover, she and some of the teenagers are involved with a terrorist sect of fundamentalist monotheists that seek to drive out "the many gods" (and their believers?). Last but not least, Clarice has ten spouses. So Diego may be a teacher, or a fellow monotheist, or one of Clarice's spouses (though I doubt new spouses are introduced that late in the season).

Great news! Connor gave me the creeps

P.S.: So much for Eddie's comment that Luciana will be the only recognizable BSG actor on Caprica. ;) But that's cool, I look forward to seeing the cast and crew working together again

Because I know you're probably interested. I got an update from Ryan about his character on Caprica. I've updated the OP with the info. He can't say anymore than that because he's signed a confidentially agreement.

I KNEW that was a young guy in old guy makeup! Thanks for confirming!

Yeah, according to one of the commentaries, they actually shot him in several stages of age makeup to sort of convey the "This guy has been coming here for a looooooon time" message, but then cut all the previous makeup stages and only showed the last one. :)

Thank you!! I love trying to smush genres together. :)

If you like Sam/Chief together you might also find this one amusing.

Always knew it was a young guy, but had NO idea it was Connor. Wow.

Holy cow! I had no idea that was the same actor. He looks like such a hick as Connor and such a reserved man in the miniseries. Wow!

As long as he's not leaving Sanctuary! I love that show.
