The hunt for new feeding grounds has caused the Wraith to fight among themselves, but they still have it in them to join together in their hive mind to reach for a common goal: new feeding grounds in the Milky Way Galaxy. <\/p>\n<p>Connor Trinneer established the character &#8220;Michael Kenmore&#8221; in the episode &#8220;Michael&#8221;, but, due to personal reasons, he was unable to reprise the role in &#8220;Allies&#8221;. Instead, the role was filled by <i>Stargate SG-1<\/i> veteran Brent Stait, better known as Major Louis Ferretti. Producer and writer Martin Gero told Gateworld that Stait looked very much like Trinneer&#8217;s Wraith persona after the make-up was applied.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/stargate-sg1-solutions.com\/imagesblog\/trinneer-michael.jpg\" width=\"230\" alt=\"Connor Trinneer's Michael\"\/>&nbsp;&nbsp;<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/stargate-sg1-solutions.com\/imagesblog\/stait-michael.jpg\" width=230\" alt=\"Brent Stait's Michael\"\/><\/p>\n<p>In Alex Levine&#8217;s latest entry in his blog on SciFi.com, he revealed that Trinneer returned to the set for a guest starring appearance.
