Created by Joseph Mallozzi (Stargate SG-1, Stargate: Atlantis and Stargate Universe) and Paul Mullie (Stargate SG-1 and Stargate: Atlantis) and based on the comic book series of the same name, Dark Matter follows six passengers aboard a spaceship who wake up from cryo-sleep with no memory of who they are or how they got there.
The only clue to their identities is a cargo bay full of weaponry and a preset destination: a remote mining colony that's about to become a war zone.
Their investigation into their situation triggers a series of interactions that provide clues to their individual identities … and as to why they've been brought together to fulfill an elusive and ever-daunting mission.
One</strong> played by Marc Bendavid
Charming but a bit of a goof, One is the crew's moral center, a guy who always tries to do the right thing, despite the odds stacked against him and no matter how unpopular the course of action. Sure, he screws up - but he means well.
Two played by Melissa O'Neil
The group's de facto leader, Two is a master fighter. Determined, tough and more than a little headstrong, she is not the type you want to mess with - or disappoint. She can be cool and inscrutable and yet, at the same time, can demonstrate surprising compassion - the mark of a true leader.
Three played by Anthony Lemke
A true badass, Three is the flip side to One's principled coin - which is why the two are often at odds, developing a (grudging) like-hate relationship over the course of their journey. He is a mercenary through-and-through, a Han Solo type, always looking out for himself. But he must come to accept the fact that if he's going to survive long enough to reach the outer colonies, he's going to have to learn to get along.
Four played by Alex Mallari Jr.
Ever-stoic and a master of the blade, Four's cool, calm demeanor belies a ruthlessness that gives even his fellow crewmembers pause. He's a man of few words but, when he does speak - just like when he fights - it's with precise efficiency. A fierce and relentless opponent, he is also an equally loyal and passionate friend.
Five played by Jodelle Ferland
The mascot with a knack for mechanics, Five also has some mysterious abilities. What first seem like telepathic powers turn out to be jumbled memories, but whose memories are they? She's the kid with all the secrets and a propensity for getting into trouble. Easily bored, quick to mouth off, she is nevertheless a relative innocent amongst less savory company.
Six played by Roger Cross
On the surface, Six is a low-key bruiser, an imposing figure amongst a group of intimidating individuals. Despite the company he keeps, he is a man of integrity with little patience for B.S. Cross him at your own risk. Beneath the rough and tumble exterior, however, is a heart of gold - 14k, the softest! A surprisingly simple guy, his quiet confidence belies a fierce intelligence and philosophical nature.
The Android played by Zoie Palmer
In personality, The Android is more butler-like than your typical robot - concise, staid, yet surprisingly possessed of a subtly wry sense of humor. She is an indispensible member of the crew since she can exercise control over all the ship's systems, an ability of which she isn't shy about reminding everyone. An outsider among the ship's human passengers, she is almost childlike in her earnest desire to fit in. Her character will grow and evolve through her interactions with her human charges as she'll inevitably gain acceptance as a member of the crew.
