FARAN TAHIR (STAR TREK, IRON MAN) TARGETS WAREHOUSE 13
New York, New York - June 14, 2010 - Faran Tahir (Star Trek, Iron Man, 24) will guest star in two episodes of Warehouse 13 this summer, as one of the mysterious and powerful Regents - the shadowy governing body charged with keeping the Warehouse safe. Syfy's hit series returns for its second season Tuesday, July 6, at 9PM (ET/PT).
Tahir stars as Regent Adwin Kosan, sent to the Warehouse to handle a burgeoning crisis. His rare appearance, and shocking pronouncements, threatens to tear the Team apart.
Tahir joins other Warehouse 13 season two guest stars Lindsay Wagner (Bionic Woman), Tia Carrere (Wayne's World), Jewel Staite and Sean Maher (both from Firefly), Neil Graystone (Eureka), Rene Auberjonois (Star Trek: Deep Space Nine), Paula Garces (Defying Gravity), Nolan Gerard Funk (Aliens in America), Philip Winchester (Crusoe) and as well as WWE Superstar Cody Rhodes (Friday Night SmackDown).
Warehouse 13 follows two Secret Service agents who find themselves abruptly transferred to a massive, top-secret storage facility in windswept South Dakota which houses every strange artifact, mysterious relic, fantastical object and supernatural souvenir ever collected by the U.S. government. The Warehouse's caretaker Artie (Rubinek) charges Agents Pete Lattimer (McClintock) and Myka Bering (Kelly) with chasing down reports of supernatural and paranormal activity in search of new objects to cache at the Warehouse, as well as helping him to control the Warehouse itself. The series also features Allison Scagliotti as Claudia, Artie's apprentice in the Warehouse.
In its first season, Warehouse 13 became the all-time Syfy leader in total viewers (4.1 million), Adults 25-54 (2.1 million) and Household ratings (2.9), based on Live+7 DVR data.
