I was kind of hoping that after 2023, she would decide to not do this. I think Michelle Yeoh is fantastic, generational actress; but I’m highly skeptical of recent Star Trek works. She is by far the biggest name to return to the franchise.
Hopefully, they have an excellent story to match.
You wanted her to not take a job cause some star trek fans didn’t want this?
No, I didn’t want a dark Section 31 series based on the Discovery/Picard “Dark Trek” writing style.
Michelle Yeoh winning the Oscar was an easy cop out. Now she’s in another league in terms of salary, and Paramount can’t afford to pay her for a streaming series. Both sides go their separate ways and the idea is dropped.
Fortunately for us, she loves the character and wanted to do at least one final act. So I guess the compromise is the movie instead of the series.
And that is cause for optimism because it likely means the script was good enough to draw her back, and concise enough that the Section 31 thing won’t be dragged out.
Hey, we’re finally getting a new Trek movie, and it has a big name actress behind it.
She played Georgiou across three seasons of Star Trek; what would be her motivation to stop in 2023?
