Jonathan J. "Jack" O'Neill, Colonel (later promoted), USAF, is a fictional character in military science fiction franchise ''Stargate'', and primarily one of the main characters of the television series ''Stargate SG-1''. He is most known as portrayed by actor Richard Dean Anderson, who played O'Neill in all the ''Stargate'' media since 1997, when he took over the role from actor Kurt Russell, who portrayed the character in the original ''Stargate'' film in 1994. O'Neill and Daniel Jackson are the only two characters to appear in both the original film and all three ''Stargate'' television series. In his first appearance in the 1994 film as Jack O'Neil, the character leads the first team to go through the Stargate on a reconnaissance mission. He subsequently becomes the main character of the television series ''Stargate SG-1'' created in 1997 as a sequel to the movie. In the first seven seasons of the show, O'Neill is the leader of the team SG-1, a part of Stargate Program whose goal is to explore the galaxy and defend against alien threats. The character became less prominent in the eighth season in which he is promoted Commanding Officer of Stargate Command, therefore greatly reducing the character's time spent exploring via the Stargate. Anderson chose to reduce his character's status to spend more time with his family, eventually leaving the show at the start of its ninth season and only appearing four times until the end of the series in its tenth and final season. The character's absence from the show was explained by his promotion to the position of head of the Department of Homeworld Security. Anderson reprised his role once again in the direct-to-DVD film ''Stargate: Continuum'', acting as a sequel to the TV series. O'Neill also appeared in the two other ''Stargate'' television series: he was an occasional character in the first three seasons of ''Stargate Atlantis'', serving as an Earth contact with Atlantis, and in four episodes of ''Stargate Universe'' (his appearance in the show's first season finale being his last appearance in the ''Stargate'' universe to date). Anderson also voiced the character in the video game ''Stargate SG-1: Unleashed''. Anderson was praised for his portrayal, with O'Neill remaining his most famous role to date alongside MacGyver. For his role in ''Stargate SG-1'', Anderson earned eight consecutive Saturn Award for Best Actor on Television nominations from 1998 to 2005, winning the award in 1999. ==Character arc== Jack O'Neill is a United States Air Force colonel with experience in special operations before joining the Stargate Program. He then joins a suicidal mission through the Stargate with a couple of airmen and Dr. Daniel Jackson who deciphers the Stargate. They are transported to another planet where O'Neill's standing order is to detonate a nuclear warhead near the Stargate at the sign of danger, but a young boy named Skaara gives him a renewed sense of life. After the defeat of Ra, O'Neill and his team return to Earth while Jackson remains on the planet. He was married to Sara O'Neill, but their marriage suffered when Jack sank into a deep depression after their son accidentally shot himself with O'Neill's pistol. Though they are still together when Jack is initially recruited for his first mission through the Stargate,〔Stargate () http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0111282/〕 by the time he returned she had left him.〔Stargate SG-1: Children of the Gods () http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0234794/〕 O'Neill returns to the Stargate Program when the Goa'uld Apophis attacks the Earth installation via its stargate. He is given command of SG-1, which consists of Samantha Carter, Teal'c and Jackson. Eventually O'Neill gets the Repository of the Ancients temporarily "downloaded" to his brain and becomes the first modern human to travel to another galaxy, the Asgard home galaxy. A second download of the Ancients' knowledge into his brain during the season 7 finale, allows him to lead SG-1 to an Ancient outpost in Antarctica. O'Neill possesses the ATA gene, and thus is able to operate the Ancient control chair and save Earth from Anubis' fleet. With the Ancient knowledge about to overwhelm his personality and kill him, he is placed into a stasis pod in the outpost until Thor of the Asgard is able to remove the knowledge and save his life. After that event, O'Neill is promoted to brigadier general and is given command of Stargate Command. O'Neill is promoted again off-screen and becomes the new head of the Department of Homeworld Security after the retirement of General Hammond with Major General Hank Landry taking his position as the new commander of Stargate Command. In the pilot of Stargate Atlantis, O'Neill convinces John Sheppard to join the Atlantis expedition to the Pegasus Galaxy. In 2006, he, along with Richard Woolsey, visits Atlantis to create a treaty between the humans of Earth and the Ancients. The death of O'Neill is briefly shown in an alternate timeline where Ba'al controls the Goa'uld Empire.〔 O'Neill reappears as a lieutenant general in ''Stargate Universe'' with Nicholas Rush, where he is recruiting Eli Wallace into the Icarus Project. After the attack on the Icarus Base, he contacts Carter from The Pentagon to talk about the ongoing situation. With help from the Ancient Communication Stones, Everett Young body swaps with Colonel David Telford to tell O'Neill about a dire situation in which they find themselves. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Jack O'Neill」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
