Biography[]

He had a supporting role as Roy in Final Destination 5. He was born in Snow Lake, Manitoba.

Though it is commonly said that Stait left Andromeda due to an allergic reaction to the prosthetics his character required, a 2011 interview revealed his departure was motivated by "physical exhaustion" from wearing the full Rev Bem costume.^[1]

Stait substituted for the body of Michael Kenmore in his Wraith form in the Stargate Atlantis episode "Allies", though Connor Trinneer continued to provide the voice. Trinneer returned to the full role after this singular episode as shown in "The Kindred (Part 1)".

Stait played DC Comics superhero Doctor Fate in Absolute Justice, a movie that takes place inside the events of the ninth season of the Superman television series Smallville,^[2] the first live action appearance of the character. In the movie, Fate is allied with fellow members of the Justice Society and comes into conflict (and later alignment) with the Justice League.^[2] Brent Stait received very positive reviews for his portrayal.

He is also known for his portrayal of Nigel Ramsey in "The Wrath of Kali", a fourth season episode of Highlander: The Series.
