SCI FI Wire:
Combs Figures More In 4400
Ira Steven Behr—executive producer of USA's SF series The 4400, which begins its third season this week—told SCI FI Wire that guest star Jeffrey Combs will appear in seven of the upcoming season's 13 episodes, reprising the role of twitchy scientist Kevin Burkhoff.
"Jeff is up in Vancouver even as we speak filming show nine, 'The Ballad of Kevin and Tess,'" Behr said in an interview in his West Hollywood, Calif., office on June 2. "So, yeah, ... he's still going to be in other episodes."
Combs, who was also a recurring cast member on Behr's Star Trek: Deep Space Nine, was introduced last season as the human scientist who discovers the secret behind the powers held by the 4,400 people who had been abducted and returned mysteriously. This season, he will continue to figure out a way to develop his own powers, a quest that culminates in the season's ninth episode.
"It's Kevin's experiment that he's been conducting on himself, trying to see if he could be the first non-4400 to develop 4400 capability," Behr said. "[It] is reaching its climax, and he is in a great deal of trouble. A lot of people are looking for him, and he is ... on the run with Tess, who is [played by former Firefly star] Summer Glau, who we met last year as well. So the two of them are off together, and there's a connection with Diana [Jacqueline McKenzie] and Kevin that we play throughout his episodes that's kind of nice." The 4400 returns at 9 p.m. ET/PT on June 11 with a two-hour season premiere. USA is owned by NBC Universal, which also owns SCIFI.COM. —Patrick Lee, News Editor
