[[Image:Aaron Douglas gatecon.jpg|right|thumb|218px| Aaron Douglas (born August 23, 1971 in New Westminister, British Columbia, Canada) is a Canadian actor. He currently stars as Chief Petty Officer Galen Tyrol on the Sci Fi Channel television program Battlestar Galactica. He has been known to post in Battlestar Galactica fan forums.

He plays poker, coming second in a celebrity tournament in Vancouver in December 2006, and winning an entry into the 2007 World Series of Poker. [1]

Battlestar Galactica

In 2003, the cult Battlestar Galactica (1978 TV series) was brought back to life, albeit in a reimagined form, as a three hour miniseries. The project was written and produced by Ronald D. Moore and directed by Michael Rymer. Aaron Douglas starred as Galen Tyrol, a Chief Petty Officer in the Colonial Fleet, in the reimagined Battlestar Galactica (TV miniseries). The Miniseries effectively served as pilot for a potential TV show. A TV series was commissioned in a collaberative effort between the Sci Fi Channel (United States) and Sky TV (the British broadcaster). Battlestar Galactica is filmed mostly in Vancouver, Canada and is currently in its third season in which Aaron Douglas is a regular cast member.

His character did not feature in the original 1978 series.
