General Actor Information

I’ve provided this basic information to help writers with the physical description of the characters in Atlantis, as well as approximate ages.  Please note that whilst the age of the actor gives the writer a reference to work from when deciding the age of the character portrayed, it is not by any means set in stone.  You need them to be a little younger or older to fit your storyline?  Well, that’s perfectly fine!  It’s a guideline, nothing more. 

Information comes from various fan and celebrity listing sites.

If anyone spots a birth date for any of the characters either written down or mentioned verbally in any of the episodes, please let me know.  Canon dates will trump actor dates every time!

Please also let me know if you can fill in any of the gaps below - though do note that the TV screen is not always accurate with hair or eye colours - it depends on the quality of the screen and the quality of the broadcast or DVD!

Thank you.
