David Hewlett

While David Hewlett has not collected major industry trophies, his impact is measured differently. He helped define one of science fiction television's most beloved characters, Dr. Rodney McKay, across over 100 episodes of the Stargate franchise. His performance in Cube remains a touchstone for fans of independent horror, and the film's enduring popularity has introduced him to new generations of viewers. Hewlett's ability to blend intellect with comic timing made McKay a standout, and his work on Stargate Atlantis earned him a devoted fanbase that keeps the character alive through conventions and online communities.
