'Star Trek: Picard' actors reunite for final season, Patrick Stewart says Jean Luc 'not the same person'
foxnews.com"Live long and prosper." "Star Trek" fans can bask in nostalgia, as the cast of the iconic science fiction series has reunited.
After more than two decades, "Star Trek: Nemesis" actors, including Gates McFadden, LeVar Burton, Jonathan Frakes and Patrick Stewart, revealed the decision to reprise their famous roles and what it was like working together on the spacecraft again on "Star Trek: Picard." Stewart, who’s known for his role as Jean Luc Picard in the "Star Trek" franchise, gave fans a preview of what they can expect in the current series. "Well, a lot of it is based on disappointment, frustration.
I was promoted, which meant a bit of farewell. A goodbye. But the admiral job turned out to be an office trip, basically. It was not what he had known all his life, which was being on a ship," the actor told the New York Times. "Star Trek: Picard" executive producer Alex Kurtzman pointed out that before the series began, Stewart challenged him to focus on the story of how Picard aged after 20 years and how events have changed in his character’s life. "Unlike the life that we saw him in 'Next Generation,' in seasons one and two of 'Picard,' Jean Luc was alone," Stewart additionally said during a Paramount+ video interview. "Jean Luc is not the same person that he was when he was captain of the Enterprise," Stewart noted.
