Peter Williams (born December 31, 1957) is a Jamaican-born actor currently residing in Canada.[1] The majority of his work has been in television, including the role of the primary villain Apophis in the first four seasons of Stargate SG-1. However, he also appeared on the big screen in films such as Catwoman[2] and The Chronicles of Riddick.[3] His brother Stephen is also in the entertainment business, and has directed several episodes of television shows including Dark Angel, Crossing Jordan and Lost.[4]
In 1995, two years prior to Stargate SG-1's premiere, Williams starred in the 1995 movie Jungleground with three other actors from the Stargate franchise: Torri Higginson (Elizabeth Weir), J. R. Bourne (Martouf), and Lexa Doig (Dr. Lam).[5]
Most recently, he played the lead Gene Wright in Frances-Anne Solomon's 2007 feature film A Winter Tale.
