Scott Devers

Scott Devers was a secondary protagonist in the 1988 South African film Space Mutiny.
He was portrayed by Graham Clarke.
Growing up on the generational ship Southern Sun, Devers became the Captain of the ship while his superior Commander Alex Jansen became overall leader of the ship's community. Devers became a good friend and trusted advisor to Jansen, as well as his daughter Lea. Meeting the new Stingray Viper pilot David Ryder, Devers quickly became friends with him as well.
When Elijah Kalgan and his Enforcers decided to stage a mutiny, Devers helped compile reports on the damage done by the mutineers as well as the strange female passengers who had recently come on board the Sun.
After Ryder brought proof of Kalgan's crimes to Jansen and Devers, the pair relieved Kalgan of his duties as the ship's Flight Commander, and named Ryder as the new Flight Commander. After Lieutenant Lamont's death, he allowed her to resume her post after she got better.
Devers volunteered to accompany Ryder when it came time to fight Kalgan and his Enforcers, however Ryder told him he preferred to do the job himself and asked Ryder to stay on the bridge. Devers tried to keep Lea from joining Ryder, but was stopped by his old friend Jansen, who told him that he couldn't stop what was about to happen. When Jansen expressed regret over the violence, Devers reminded Jansen that it was the only way to keep Kalgan from taking over the Southern Sun.
==Trivia==
* Due to the character's resemblance to singer/actor Gordon Matthew Thomas Sumner, the crew of the Satellite of Love took to referring to Devers as Sting when MST3K screened Space Mutiny.
