Nana Visitor To Star On Battlestar Galactica

This just in: Nana Visitor, star on Star Trek: Deep Space Nine for seven seasons, will take on a recurring role on Battlestar Galactica.
Ronald D. Moore told Starburst magazine in a recent interview

“Nana Visitor [Major Kira Nerys on DSN] is playing Emily. She’s another cancer patient in sickbay and who Laura Roslin meets when receiving her chemotherapy treatments, which we call diloxin on our show. Not surprisingly, the president is making regular visits to sickbay this season, and in this story we introduce Emily, who is terminal and much further along in her illness then Laura. Faith is about the relationship between the two women. Nana is going to be terrific for this role, and it’s great to see her again.”
