joe__gee writes, Sci Fi’s BSG site has been through a revamp. There’s a beautiful cast art photograph with the characters arranged in the fashion of Da Vinci’s Last Supper. Jesus is a surprising choice, Judas was a no-brainer. Peter has been repositioned, but he’s holding his knife. Beyond those three I’m not certain who is who, but I suspect there are clues to the coming season scattered through the image. Oh, there’s also an eight minute recap of the previous three seasons.
Who’s who
It’s hard to say since they moved people around, but…
Rosalyn: Bartholomew
Six/Gina: James
Tigh: Andrew
Apollo: John
Baltar: Judas
Six (The hallucination version): Jesus
Starbuck: John
Anders: Thomas
Tyrol: Peter
Boomer: Matthew
Helo: Philip
Adama: Simon
Re: Who’s who
Actually, it’s Athena.
(I know, I know, it’s a nitpicky, but since we already count different Six "flavours"…
Re: Who’s who
Actually, there is someone missing (there are two apostles called James) and that person is where Judas *should* be in the original work. Prominent characters show characters that are missing are Dualla (who would probably be next to Apollo), Gaeta and Tory.
Rather interesting though, the depiction, pose and general disinterest of Apollo is the closest to that of Judas in the original – everyone else in the original and BSG take is showing some kind of reaction. This is supposed to be the exact moment where Christ reveals that someone present will betray him, so any hidden meanings are probably going to hinge on exactly what Six’s big revelation of S4 will be.

Is that Gina over next to the President?
It has to be Gina, but like you I realized Tory is missing.

Re: Who’s who
Yeah, given that there’s a missing person in the BSG picture, I tried to match up pose and location, with a little fudging, to guess who’s who. My outcome was a more or less random selection for who I didn’t list from the original.
Re: Who’s who
You did pretty good though. I’m not familiar enough with each of the apostles stories to figure out who would best go where.
Thanks for your analysis. :)

Annoyed with Scifi.com
That would have been helpful but scifi.com appears to have an annoying filter: "this video is not available for your location" – after it shows the advert clip! – and I really can’t be bothered going through the hassle of a proxy service to get there. :(
