Creation Entertainment is bringing Humanity and Cylons together for the Salute to Battlestar Galactica 20th Anniversary event this week in Chicago. Cast and crew from the hit Sci-Fi Channel Original Series will be joining for the special weekend, and ComicsOnline is kicking off our new exclusive interviews with the President of the Twelve Colonies: Mary McDonnell a.k.a. President Laura Roslin!

Mary joined Host Matt Sernaker for a BSG and career deep dive for our latest chapter of "Storytime with ComicsOnline." Click below to hear about her casting experience, production highlights, her favorite story elements, and more.
