Actor David James Elliott, who previously headlined CBS’s “JAG”, is starring in SciFi’s upcoming original mini-series, “Knights of Bloodsteel.”

Elliott recently spoke to TV Guide’s William Keck about the lead role and having to wear hair extensions to play the role of John Serragoth.

Serragoth wields swords to battle evil, fire-breathing dragons as forest-dwelling warrior out to avenge the death of his pregnant wife.

Elliott told Keck that filming has been intense, showed Keck a black and blue mark he received from a sword that “nearly slashed my eye out.” That would have left him looking much like his character’s chief adversary: the all-powerful Dragon Eye, a character David describes as “a whitish-gray demon with a third eye that opens and shoots out bolts of lightning.”

“Knights of Bloodsteel” airs on SciFi April 19 and 20.
