star trek john luke picard cast

The crew of the “U.S.S. Enterprise” reunites for one final mission in Season 3 of “Star Trek: Picard.”

It marks the first time the entire cast from “Star Trek: The Next Generation” (“TNG”) — Patrick Stewart, Jonathan Frakes, Brent Spiner, Gates McFadden, Marina Sirtis, LeVar Burton and Michael Dorn — have reunited on screen since 2002’s “Star Trek Nemesis.”

See what your favorite “TNG” cast members look like now.

Now retired and residing at his family vineyard, the Starfleet admiral is called into action for one final mission after receiving a distress call from Beverly Crusher.

Aside from Picard, Stewart is best known for playing Professor Charles Xavier in the “X-Men” movie franchise. His character recently crossed over to the MCU, appearing as a member of the Illuminati in “Dr. Strange and the Multiverse of Madness.”

Star Trek: Picard -- trailer, cast, plot, release date and more

Patrick Stewart beams back into the world of Star Trek as Jean-Luc Picard. Here's all the latest news on the cast, plot, release date, prequels and dog.

amandakooser.jpg

He's coming back.

picard

Patrick Stewart is going where no Starfleet captain has gone before: into his very own series, decades after wrapping up his original Star Trek run. He'll have a furry companion, old crew mates along for the ride and plenty of new characters to contend with.

Caution: There may be minor spoilers below.

Star Trek: Picard , a CBS All Access streaming show, will debut on Jan. 23, 2020. The show follows on the heels of Star Trek: Discovery , but the two series take place at very different points in the Trek universe. 

CBS All Access is feeling pretty confident about the show. It has already been renewed for season 2 . (Disclosure: CBS is the parent company of CNET.)

A  trailer  for Picard came out of San Diego Comic-Con  in July, and it was a surprise-packed doozy. The trailer revealed that Star Trek icons Brent Spiner (Data) and Jeri Ryan (Seven of Nine) will appear in the new series. 

Picard will hook up with a new non-Starfleet crew in a quest to protect a mysterious woman named Dahj (Isa Briones) who comes to him for help. The Borg, one of the most imposing Star Trek villains ever created, will play a role in the plot.

Jonathan Frakes (William Riker) and Marina Sirtis (Deanna Troi)  will appear in Picard as their Next Generation characters. We also know Jonathan Del Arco will reprise his role as Hugh the Borg.

A teaser trailer beamed in on May 22, 2019 , shows that Jean-Luc Picard, who was promoted to admiral, led a rescue armada on a mysterious mission 15 years prior to the show's events. He then left Starfleet, leaving us to wonder what prompted his exit and why he's reappearing now. 

CBS first revealed the official Star Trek: Picard name on May 15 and posted a look at the show's logo. The Starfleet logo takes the place of the "A" in Picard. 

A Star Trek: Short Treks episode Children of Mars set up some backstory for Picard, highlighting attacks from "rogue synths" on Mars while Picard was still a Starfleet admiral. The main series should fill in the blanks here.  

NYCC drops hints

This Seven of Nine costume explainer talks about the former Borg member's changes over the years.

New York Comic Con in October 2019 quickly became a hot spot for mining new details on Picard . 

Star Trek had a booth on the convention floor stocked with costumes and a few character details related to the new show. 

A set of descriptions explaining the costuming didn't give us much news about our admiral, but one of them clued us in to what former Borg member Seven of Nine has been up to since the events of Star Trek: Voyager. 

"Seven of Nine has become more comfortable with her humanity in the intervening years," the description read, saying this is represented in her "more casual, stylish and decidedly human clothing."

We also learned the mysterious Dahj arrives at Picard's vineyard in France "with a cut on her head and a strong feeling she can trust Picard implicitly."

A pup for Picard

Stewart and CBS revealed the key art for the show on July 10, just ahead of the star's appearance at San Diego Comic-Con .

The dog, a pit bull, is particularly notable. Zoom in on its ears. They may have been cropped, but they also look a lot like pointy Vulcan ears. Stewart is known for his work fostering rescue dogs. His most recent foster, Emma, is a pit mix with cropped ears.

Stewart shared a photo of Emma along with his hidden Picard rehearsal script in April. The dog in the poster sports a Starfleet emblem tag on its collar and his name is now confirmed as "Number One." 

Revisiting Jean-Luc Picard

Stewart, who on Jan. 13 created an imprint for display at the iconic Chinese Theatre in Hollywood, has a long history with the Star Trek franchise. He first warped into the iconic role of Capt. Jean-Luc Picard of the USS Enterprise with the debut of Star Trek: The Next Generation in 1987. That means Stewart will be back in Picard's shoes more than 30 years after originating the role. He last appeared on screen as Picard in the 2002 movie Star Trek: Nemesis .

  • Picard trailer -- possible reasons Captain Picard left Starfleet
  • Picard memes: Patrick Stewart's best viral Star Trek moments
  • The Next Generation finale has me pumped for new Picard series
  • Picard is the hero we need, says Star Trek writer Michael Chabon

He's been plenty busy in the meantime, continuing his role as Professor X in the X-Men movies , up through a farewell performance in 2017's  Logan . He has a lot of voice acting credits to his name, including Poop in The Emoji Movie . Fans can also catch him as Bosley in a 2019 version of Charlie's Angels .

Stewart announced the new Picard series in August 2018 at the Official Star Trek Convention in Las Vegas. He called his return "an unexpected but delightful surprise" and said he hopes "to research and experience what comforting and reforming light [Picard] might shine on these often very dark times."

Who's making Picard? 

Stewart is doubling as an executive producer along with Alex Kurtzman, the creator of Star Trek: Discovery. Pulitzer Prize-winning novelist Michael Chabon is on board as an executive producer and writer. Chabon described Picard as "the hero we need right now."

Stewart shared a behind-the-scenes photo in September 2018 from a Picard meeting where he's sitting with Chabon and other members of the show's production staff. Stewart has been involved with the writing for the show from early on.

Hanelle Culpepper will make history as the first woman to launch a new Star Trek television show. Culpepper directed the first two episodes. She has an extensive TV resume, which includes Star Trek: Discovery, The Flash and Gotham.

Frakes, who will appear as Riker in the show, has a long career as a director that includes multiple Star Trek franchise entries on both the big and small screens. He directed some episodes of the new series. Frakes posted a photo of himself with Stewart to Twitter on May 21, 2019, and tagged Star Trek on CBS.

The Picard plot

CBS and Stewart had kept pretty quiet on the details of the show's plot until the teaser and full trailer arrived. We already knew it takes place around two decades after the events of Star Trek: Nemesis. 

The teaser lays out a big plot point when a voiceover says Admiral Picard commanded a rescue armada that "led us out of the darkness" 15 years before the series picks up. It asks the questions: What did it cost him and why did he leave Starfleet? That's a huge cliffhanger to contemplate ahead of the show's debut.

The Star Trek: Picard poster shows a Starfleet logo formed from grapevines.

 width=

Both the teaser and trailer start in a vineyard, which is a callback to the final TNG television episode in 1994, All Good Things  that showed one possible future Picard working in a vineyard in France. That Picard had become an ambassador. We know the Picard in the new show was promoted to admiral at some point.

A poster for the series shows a vineyard with the Starfleet logo formed out of grapevines along with the catchphrase "The end is only the beginning."

Picard's history ties strongly in with the Romulans. "Picard's life was radically altered by the dissolution of the Romulan Empire," Kurtzman told The Hollywood Reporter . 

The 2009  Star Trek  reboot movie covered the demise of the planet Romulus at the hands of an exploding star in 2387. Could this event have been the focus of Picard's rescue armada? 

The reboot movies take place in the alternate Kelvin timeline, but Picard is firmly located in the prime Star Trek timeline, in the lineage of the TV shows that came before it.

"We're in the prime timeline. Events from the Kelvin timeline impacted Picard. If you look at that movie, the destruction of Romulus was in the prime timeline," Kurtzman clarified during a Television Critics Association press event in January .

Picard has a complicated history with the Romulans. In Nemesis, he tangled with a Romulan clone of himself. 

The trailer features a Borg ship that may be acting as a prison vessel staffed by Romulans. A sign says it has gone 5,843 days without an assimilation.

Don't expect a mere reboot of The Next Generation. "Patrick was very clear to us in the beginning. He didn't want to repeat what he had already done. And by the way, it's been 20-plus years, so he couldn't possibly be that same person anymore," Kurtzman told reporters in January 2019 .

We have a lot of questions about what Picard has been up to all those years, and some of them were answered in a series of prequel books . CBS, Simon & Schuster and comics publisher IDW released Star Trek: Picard -- Countdown, a three-issue comic book miniseries in November. This focused on a life-changing mission for Picard.

A full Picard tie-in novel called The Last Best Hope is due in February 2020. Una McCormack, author of several Star Trek novels, is the author of the book.

Picard's place in Trek

Stewart's Picard took on the weight of Star Trek's future when he stepped up to captain the Enterprise-D. Until then, the Trek universe had revolved around the original crew led by Capt. James T. Kirk, played by William Shatner. Kirk and the gang had re-emerged from the shadow of the original series' cancellation in the '60s and were born again through a string of successful movies starting in 1979. 

Stewart's character couldn't have been more different from the leap-into-action, kiss-the-aliens Kirk. Picard created a new mold for Starfleet captains. His Picard was cerebral, wise and measured, but also passionate. If you need a reminder, watch his defense of android crew member Data as a sentient being in the season 2 episode Measure of a Man.

How to watch

Star Trek: Picard will debut on Jan. 23, 2020. It'll stream in the US on CBS All Access and on the Space Channel in Canada. Internationally, Amazon Prime Video will host each episode within 24 hours of the US premiere in over 200 countries and territories. That's a change from how Discovery is distributed internationally through Netflix.

The Starfleet museum opened once again to the public Thursday at San Diego Comic-Con . This year's installation is focused on the life and career of Jean-Luc Picard ahead of the new CBS All Access show about the former captain. 

More details about the show will hopefully come during the Star Trek universe panel on Saturday morning, but check out what we've learned so far! (Disclosure: CBS is the parent company of CNET.)

The installation highlights various aspects of Picard's personal and professional life. 

All of the uniforms displayed are screen-used, and represent the majority of uniforms Picard has worn throughout the years.

Some new faces and some old: All Star Trek.

With Star Trek: Picard Season 2 set to premiere on Paramount+ on March 3, 2022, knowing the cast and crew can be very helpful.

Related: ‘Picard’s Jeri Ryan and Michelle Hurd on Season 2, Season 3, and How They’re Currently Filming the Series Finale

Sir Patrick Stewart as Jean-Luc Picard

star-trek-picard-patrick-stewart

Sir Patrick Stewart is once again returning as the illustrious Jean-Luc Picard. After his experience with Star Trek: The Next Generation from 1987 to 1994 and the following movies in 1996, 1998, and 2002, Patrick Stewart continued to act in roles such as Professor X in the X-Men movies. Patrick Stewart returned to the Star Trek Universe in 2020 once again and has even signed on for a third season to carry the show through 2023.

Jean-Luc Picard has aged quite a bit since his last appearance, but since the events of Picard Season 1, he is now a perfectly healthy older Terran man. Picard’s history with Q makes this new season especially interesting, as the mischievous Q has always had an affinity for time travel. With multiple new timelines, and alternative timelines being set up, we will soon see how the aged Admiral (ret.) Picard will inspire a new crew across time and space.

Alison Pill as Dr. Agnes Jurati

Alison Pill in Star Trek Picard

Alison Pill is a Canadian TV and film actress who started her onscreen career in 1993 and has gone on to have important roles in The Newsroom and Scott Pilgrim vs. the World . Her more notable success has been on Broadway, having won a Tony for her role in The Lieutenant of Inishmore. While she has been confirmed to return in Season 2 of Picard , it is currently unclear how many episodes she will be in.

Dr. Jurati is an expert in robotics, and although she originally was not all the way in agreement with Picard, from the finale of Picard she seems to be completely committed now. She has been seen in a good number of scenes from the available trailers, and we can fully expect the lovable scientist who lacks street smarts to continue her enjoyable journey.

Santiago Cabrera as Cristóbal Ríos

Patrick Stewart, Evan Evagora, and Santiago Cabrera in Star Trek Picard

Santiago Cabrera is a Chilean actor who has spent his career acting in the United States and the United Kingdom. Some of his popular roles have been Lancelot in Merlin, and Aramis in The Musketeers . Early in his life, Santiago Cabrera attended the Drama Centre London from 2000-to 2003, which is the foundation for his acting training. Besides his previously mentioned roles, Cabrera has had roles for television series, movies, and as well as a few video games and theatre productions.

In Cabrera’s role as Cristóbal Ríos, he was the pilot and owner of the ship La Sirena that the crew traveled in. A former Star Fleet officer, Cristóbal Ríos is no longer on the straight and narrow. This capacity has come in handy for Picard on more than one occasion, and with the transition to a new timeline, these skills may be even more useful.

Isa Briones as Soji

star-trek-picard-patrick-stewart-isa-briones

Isa Briones is an American actress who rose to fame through her role in Picard. She began her career in musical theater, with performances in Miracle on 34th Street as well as the Hamilton touring crews. She has also won the Ovation Award for her role in Next to Normal.

While her acting career has been quite short so far, her performance was excellent during Picard Season 1. While Soji has been a major part of the first season, we have seen very little of the character in the marketing material for Season 2. We will have to wait and see what she will do in the coming season.

Michelle Hurd as Raffi Musiker

Patrick Stewart and Michelle Hurd in Star Trek Picard

Michelle Hurd is an American actress that has been active on the small screen since 1989. She has played parts in series such as The Glades , Daredevil , and Blindspot . She has spent a lot of time on the small screen but has yet to win any awards. Nevertheless, she is a great actress who will hopefully get the recognition she deserves soon.

Raffi Musiker is a former Star Fleet officer who served with Picard while he was still an active admiral. She is a highly skilled computer user, and researcher that often helps to puzzle out the solutions to difficult situations. This will make her a vital part of the team as the crew moves into the past.

Evan Evagora as Elnor

Evan Evagora in Star Trek Picard

Evan Evagora is a young Australian actor who has performed in a number of different series and documentaries. He attended film school in South Melbourne and has participated in football as well as boxing. He is most well known for his role as Elnor. Elnor is a Romulan who was trained by the Qowat Milat and is working with Picard. He is an able warrior, and he originally grew up with Picard while he was a refugee on Vashti.

Jeri Ryan as Seven of Nine

star-trek-picard-jeri-ryan

Jeri Ryan is an American actress most well known for her role as Seven of Nine in Star Trek: Voyager , for which she was nominated for the Saturn award four times and she won once. She has been acting since 1991 and has performed in series such as Dark Skies , Boston Public , and Body of Proof .

Jeri Ryan reprised her role in Picard Season 1 but was not a series regular. Seven of Nine has struggled to integrate out of Star Fleet and has grown a little rough around the edges. In Season 2, Picard may very well need someone with a rough edge as they are forced to travel throughout time.

John de Lancie as Q

star-trek-picard-john-de-lancie

John de Lancie is an American actor who has been an actor in film and tv series since 1975. He is probably most famous for his role as Q in Star Trek: The Next Generation , and Eugene Bradford in Day of Our Lives . He has been nominated for several awards for his acting and voice acting including the Soap Opera Digest Award for Outstanding Actor in a Supporting Role in a Daytime Serial, which he won for his role in Day of Our Lives.

John de Lancie is reprising his role as Q, and will likely be up to his usual deadly shenanigans . We have already seen at least two time shifts from the trailers that have been released, and an encounter with Picard. Wherever this next season may lead, Q will undoubtedly be at its core.

Whoopi Goldberg as Guinan

Picard Season 2 Patrick Stewart Whoopi Goldberg Guinan

Whoopi Goldberg is a highly decorated actress who has won an Emmy Award, a Grammy Award, an Academy Award, and a Tony Award. She has been acting since 1989 and is famous for her roles and time on shows such as The View , The Color Purple , and Sister Act .

Whoopi Goldberg will be reprising her role as Guinan. Guinan first appeared in Star Trek: The Next Generation , and has often been known to offer sage advice to Picard and others throughout time. Guinan is far older than most people are aware of, and has a history with both the Borg and Q. This history seems likely to be at the forefront of the next season of Picard , and we may finally get to know how Guinan became who she is.

The Star Trek: Picard TV series: Everything we know

Rick Marshall

CBS has officially launched Star Trek: Picard , a new series focusing on Jean-Luc Picard, Patrick Stewart’s iconic starship captain from the classic TV series Star Trek: The Next Generation and various Star Trek spinoff films — and CBS’s last, best hope in the streaming war.

First episode is free

Picard on a mission, season 2 greenlit, launch date, the trailers, a man and his dog, the supporting cast, behind the camera, the return of jean-luc.

The series premiered January 23 on the CBS All Access streaming service and unfolds 20 years after the events of the 2002 film Star Trek: Nemesis .

Here’s everything we learned about Star Trek: Picard in the lead-up to its premiere.

Anyone who missed the series premiere of  Star Trek: Picard will get another chance to see what all the buzz is about — and without the need for a CBS All Access subscription.

ViacomCBS has made the first episode of  Picard available on YouTube for a limited time.

Pluto TV , the free, ad-supported streaming video service, also announced plans to repeatedly stream the first episode of Picard over the course of a 24-hour marathon on Thursday, January 30. The episode will then air again every evening at 8 p.m. ET on Pluto TV’s Sci-Fi channel for a week, through February 5.

You now have even more places to watch the premiere episode of #StarTrekPicard ! Enjoy a 24-hour marathon of Episode 1 on Pluto TV Sci-Fi starting now! (CH 661) https://t.co/NoAhliehhQ #PlutoTV #StarTrek pic.twitter.com/yruNoHZt07 — Pluto TV (@PlutoTV) January 30, 2020

The partnership between CBS All Access and Pluto TV makes sense, given that Pluto TV is owned by ViacomCBS, and could be a sign of things to come as the latter looks to generate more excitement — and subscriptions — for its streaming service.

CBS released a brief preview for the series on Facebook that provided a litany of intriguing new footage. The titular former captain of the Enterprise tells viewers, “I was haunted by my past. But now, I have a mission. I will do what needs to be done.”

While the promotional spot teases some familiar faces and places, the new mission appears to involve a mysterious new character played by Isa Briones, as well as both the Borg Collective and what’s left of the Romulans.

The second season of Star Trek: Picard was given the green light ahead of the series’ debut. Just like the first season, season 2 of  Star Trek: Picard will encompass 10 episodes.

Star Trek: Picard debuted on CBS All Access on January 23. The show’s title and logo were first revealed during a network presentation for advertisers on May 15, 2019.

CBS revealed the first, ever-so-brief trailer for the series in May 2019. The preview featured the former Starfleet hero at his family’s vineyard and hinted at an ominous reason for his exit from Starfleet.

Picard ‘s second trailer dropped during San Diego’s Comic-Con International in 2019, and if you thought that the USS Enterprise-D’s beloved captain was the only Star Trek character returning for the show, think again. Not only does the trailer feature Star Trek: Voyager ‘s Seven of Nine and a Borg cube, but Data, played once again by Brent Spiner, makes a surprise appearance in the trailer’s closing moments.

Data isn’t the only Star Trek: The Next Generation alumnus coming to Picard , either. At the Picard Comic-Con panel, showrunner Michael Chabon confirmed that Jonathan Frakes, who played William Riker, Picard’s second-in-command, and Marina Sirtis, better known as ship counselor Deanna Troi, also appear in the series.

The trailer also hints at Picard ‘s overarching storyline, which will be much more serialized than the good captain’s The Next Generation adventures. In Picard , Jean-Luc has retired to his family vineyard, but still longs for the stars. He gets his chance to return to space (alongside what looks like a new crew) when a young, mysterious woman arrives at the Picard homestead looking for his help. We don’t know the woman’s secret, but it must be a big one. Plenty of people are trying to kill her, after all.

The third trailer for Picard was released during 2019’s  New York Comic-Con , and features both plenty of action and also the long-awaited return of Riker and Troi.

Patrick Stewart debuted a promotional image for Star Trek: Picard in July 2019, tweeting out a shot of himself as Jean-Luc Picard alongside a dog, looking out over the family vineyard he retired to after the events of Star Trek: Nemesis .

The first season of  Star Trek: Picard will consist of 10 episodes, with Hanelle Culpepper directing the first three episodes, and veteran Star Trek actor and filmmaker Frakes (above) directing a few episodes as well.

Alongside Patrick Stewart in the lead role, the series will also feature Santiago Cabrera as a skilled thief and pilot who assists Picard, as well as Michelle Hurd (below) as a former Starfleet intelligence officer who has a complicated past with Jean-Luc. Allison Pill will also play a member of Picard’s crew named Dr. Jurati, who is gung ho about Picard’s new mission.

Development of the series was tasked to Star Trek: Discovery co-creator and executive producer Alex Kurtzman, who is joined by many of the other members of the Discovery creative team on the project. In July 2019, renowned author Michael Chabon was announced as the series’ showrunner.

Chabon, a lifelong Star Trek fan who worked with Kurtzman on some of the early concept pitches for the series, is an award-winning author and screenwriter who will also serve as an executive producer on the show.

“Star Trek has been an important part of my way of thinking about the world, the future, human nature, storytelling, and myself since I was 10 years old,” said Chabon of shepherding the series. “I come to work every day in a state of joy and awe at having been entrusted with the character and the world of Jean-Luc Picard, with this vibrant strand of the rich, intricate, and complex tapestry that is Trek.”

Also serving as executive producers on the Picard series are Star Trek: Discovery executive producer James Duff, former Discovery executive producer Akiva Goldsman, and Star Trek: Voyager and Discovery writer Kirsten Beyer, as well as Roddenberry Entertainment President Eugene Roddenberry, the son of Star Trek creator Gene Roddenberry. The Picard series is reportedly one of several in-development Star Trek projects for CBS, which is making the sci-fi property one of the foundations of its CBS All Access streaming service.

Star Trek: Picard features Stewart reprising the role he played for seven seasons on the long-running Star Trek: The Next Generation television series and in multiple Star Trek movies. The series will continue his story, exploring Picard’s life after the events of  The Next Generation and the films.

Stewart’s return to the role of Jean-Luc Picard was first announced in August 2018 , and the veteran actor — who is also well-known for portraying telepathic mutant Charles Xavier in the X-Men movies — said he was “excited and invigorated” to revisit the character.

It is an unexpected but delightful surprise to find myself excited and invigorated to be returning to Jean-Luc Picard and to explore new dimensions within him.

An accomplished actor on stage and screen, Stewart has been nominated for three Golden Globe Awards and five Primetime Emmy Awards over the years for his performances, including a critically praised portrayal of King Henry II in 2003’s  The Lion in Winter and his portrayal of Captain Ahab in the 1998 television miniseries Moby Dick .

10 best Star Trek moments from Patrick Stewart's Jean-Luc Picard

star trek john luke picard cast

Picard is back!

Fighter. Diplomat. Tea lover. Tea spiller. Poet. Commander. This is Patrick Stewart's Jean-Luc Picard, Captain of the Enterprise in Star Trek: The Next Generation . And he's back! Stewart will return in the Trek universe as his legendary character in a brand new series for CBS All Access . What makes him so iconic? What makes him stand out from the other commanders to grace the small screen? From man-in-tights Picard to Borg slayer to intergalactic peace keeper, delve into Picard's past to predict what might become of Picard's future.

"Q-Pid"

Q wants to know what love is so he transports Picard and Vash into a Robin Hood-esque scenario to watch the captain save his gal. Alter-ego Picards are the most entertaining Picards.

"Menage a Troi"

Speaking of love, Lwaxana Troi, Picard's official stalker, wants a ride in the captain's seat. Picard is definitely not interested, but he sets aside his lack of enthusiasm to save Lwaxana when she's kidnapped by Ferengi DaiMon Tog. You see, she was playing hard to get and was refusing to come back to the Enterprise. So Picard throws out his best Shakespearean love lines to win back her heart.

"The Best of Both Worlds"

Picard lives the borg life in "The Best of Both Worlds, Part I" and "Part II." Well, technically it's Locutus, but still. When the Borg race invades the Federation space, they kidnap Picard to make him one of their own, erasing a symbol of humanity's best parts. From the single tear dripping down the face of a seemingly gone Picard to Picard struggling to tell Data "sleep," the goodness in the commander remained intact.

Star Trek: First Contact

Once again, Starfleet grapples with the Borg. Once again, it seems like the villains might prevail. When Lily Sloane pushes Picard to the edge of his patience to blow up the ship, he gives a passionate reply: "They invade our space and we fall back. They decimate entire worlds and we fall back. Not again. The line must be drawn here."

"Tapestry"

If Picard had to redo his entire history, he wouldn't change a thing. He learned that lesson after getting stabbed in the heart and seeing a heavenly vision of how his life would've been if he played it safe. Picard would rather get stabbed in the heart again than embrace a menial existence.

"Chain of Command"

"There are four lights!" When you get captured by the Cardassians and tortured for information with no hope in sight, never forget this line from Picard's moving speech.

"The Drumhead"

In another moment that resulted in a famous Picard meme, he faced McCarthy-esque villain Norah Satie with great gusto. On trial as the admiral fell into xenophobia in an investigation of potential sabotage, Picard spoke these words: "The first time any man's freedom is trodden on, they're all damaged." Hmm. If only there was some real-world equivalent this applies to.

"Starship Mine"

Don't let Picard's love of tea fool you. This commander can kick some serious butt. He demonstrated his skills by single-handedly taking out a band of thieves infiltrating the ship.

"The Inner Light"

After being taken over by an alien probe, Picard wakes as a Kamin, a resident of the planet Kataan. During a simulation, he lives through the last days of his home world’s existence in a 20-minute span, giving us this image of Stewart playing a flute.

"Darmok"

Universal translators can only go so far. When Starfleet encounters a new alien civilization and their metaphorical speak confounds even their language translators, Picard must connect with the Tamarians, being to being.

For Patrick Stewart, Jean-Luc Picard is ‘the biggest thing that’s ever happened to me’

Patrick Stewart

As the august space voyager Jean-Luc Picard, Patrick Stewart commanded the Starship Enterprise on and off across seven seasons of “Star Trek: The Next Generation,” four feature films, and, after a two-decade pause, three seasons of “Picard.” It’s a role he took only because he was assured by confidants that “The Next Generation,” which required a six-year contract, wouldn’t run a year, freeing him to return to England and the theater.

The final season of “ Picard ,” which concludes Thursday on Paramount+ , brings down the curtain on the character and, in bringing back most of the original show’s cast, “The Next Generation” saga as well. I spoke with Stewart, 82, a genial, funny, casually dapper gent, at the home he shares with his wife, singer Sunny Ozell — an old Spanish-style house on a leafy Los Angeles street, purchased just before the pandemic. (“I never thought I’d live in a house that had archways everywhere — no doors!” He counted six from where we were sitting.) Stewart had watched the finale that morning, and he had thoughts and more.

Did you fall in love with Shakespeare before you decided to become an actor?

No. Because “fall in love” doesn’t fit my experience. But something happened, and it happened the first time I held a copy of Shakespeare in my hand and read aloud. And that was because of an English teacher, Cecil Dormand; he had that wonderful ability of being intense and serious about the work and also entertaining and comical at times.

And one day he went around our classroom, dropping a little thin book onto [our desks] and said, “Right, ‘Merchant of Venice.’ This is William Shakespeare, and you’re reading so and so,” and finally, “Patrick, you’re reading Shylock. OK, Act 4, Scene 1 — you know, who you’re playing, start reading it.” So we all went [mimes students reading silently], and he said, “Not to yourselves, you idiots. This is life, it’s drama. It’s the real world. Aloud!” And I had a big speech — it’s the trial scene — I didn’t know what the hell I was saying. There were words I’d never encountered before. I didn’t understand it, but there was something that made my breathing deeper. I can only remember the physical sensation because I was 12 — it wasn’t comprehension, I just felt weight in myself, which I hadn’t felt before. And I was hooked.

Tell me about Murph Swander.

Murph Swander ! His real name was Homer. Homer D. Swander. In one sense, he’s why this huge event happened in my career and life. Murph came knocking on my dressing room at the Royal Shakespeare Theatre, in Stratford-on-Avon. He was standing there with a bottle of malt whiskey in his hand, and he introduced himself and said, “I’m here with a group of young people from California and we’re coming to see your show tonight and we’d love you to come talk to us tomorrow.” I said, “I’m sorry, I don’t do that. My work is what I do onstage, not talking about it.” And he said, “Well, it would give the students a lot of pleasure if you came, and by the way, this is for you.” I couldn’t afford to drink single malt whiskey in those days, so I said, “All right. Ten o’clock tomorrow morning.” And I talked for the whole hour without taking a breath.

Jumping forward many years, he set up a sort of institution which was run by Murph and myself and another actor, may he rest in peace, called Tony Church, and we went to Santa Barbara [where Swander taught] and did a week of classes, and we’d go to UCLA and up to Santa Cruz — it was mostly the University of California circuit. I got to know some of the teachers very well. And one of them, professor David Rodes, a specialist in Shakespeare at UCLA, called me one day and said, “I’m giving a public lecture on campus, and if you wouldn’t mind reading some passages to illustrate it, I thought it would be great.” So I said, “Sure, of course.” And he said, “There’s $100 in it for you.” “Wow, yes, I’ll do that.”

So I did, and the next morning, I got a call from a man who told me he was my agent — I’d never met him, never talked to him before, but he was my agent in California — and he said, “I’ve got two questions for you. What the hell were you doing at UCLA last night and why would Gene Roddenberry want to see you this morning?” And I said, “Jean who? I don’t know her.” And he told me who Gene Roddenberry was.

Patrick Stewart

What were your first impressions of him?

Impressions ... not good. What I learned many months later was that one of the producers of this new series, which I’d never heard of —

You’d never heard of “Star Trek” at all?

I may have heard of it. When my children were young, I used to race home from the theater in Stratford after the matinee so I could help with their supper and read them a story before racing back to do an evening performance. And they’d watch this show, which I used to occasionally see when I came home on Saturday afternoon, these guys wearing different color T-shirts. That’s all I knew.

So I was told that it was a new “Star Trek” series , and I went to Gene Roddenberry’s house and was greeted at the door by this man, Robert Justman, who had been at the university the previous night and had called Gene Roddenberry and said, “I think we found an actor we’ve got to have in the show.” When I arrived, there were two other men there, besides Gene and Robert, and nobody asked me sit down. We talked for about 10 minutes standing up, and then Gene said, “Thanks for coming over,” and goodbye. And I was back on the street, and I thought, “Bloody hell, what the heck was that about?”

Yes, Hollywood. So I called my agent and told him and he said, “Well, it’s funny you should say that because we’ve had another call and they want to see you again. “

Were there things that attracted you to the show, other than that it was work?

Nnnnnope . It was a style of work I never associated with, or even particularly watched when I was younger. Sci-fi didn’t have any interest for me. What was of interest was that it was on camera, it was in California, it was in Hollywood. My agent took me out to lunch and said, “I’ve got to walk you through the deal.” And when he told me some of the details I was totally disbelieving, what my salary per episode would be — incomprehensible. I couldn’t imagine that, nor indeed had I ever wanted it. I just loved the work I was doing, [playing] Shakespeare and other great dramatists.

Actor Patrick Stewart closely examines a purple flower.

Was there a point where it became emotionally satisfying, more than just a job?

It took a long time. I worked very, very hard. I wanted to do good work because I thought this might be my passport to Hollywood. Well, seven years later, we wrapped the series and then we did four movies. It was the biggest thing that’s ever happened to me.

More for better than for worse.

Unquestionably.

How different was it playing Picard in “Picard” ?

Oh, so different. I turned it down at first. And then I thought about the offer and decided I would do it, but I made two conditions. I didn’t want to wear a uniform, and it must not be a series that is fundamentally a sentimental reunion of “The Next Generation.” And they agreed to that. And I think the first “Next Generation” character who came on the show was Jonathan Frakes [as Will Riker] and then in Season 2, Marina Sirtis, who played Counselor Troi, was also in it. And to my great pleasure, I enjoyed having them back on the soundstage. We’ve all aged, all of us. I mean, Michael Dorn [who plays Worf], whose hair is white! And Jonathan with his grizzled gray beard. And me, of course, with my hollowed cheeks and exhausted appearance.

I think it was [producer] Alex Kurtzman who said, “Look, 20 years have passed, and in those 20 years, surely a lot has happened to you, Patrick. I know enough about your life to know there have been upheavals and changes. Surely, the same has happened to Jean-Luc Picard. What might those things be?” Well, I actually invented a whole story about those missing years; this may sound a little pretentious, but to create that past, which I assume will never, ever be known, was very intimate, and it influenced me when we began shooting “Picard.” Because I knew he had needs, longings, desires that were not being fulfilled. Disappointment that things had not gone the way he had hoped. Loneliness. Separation from these people he had loved and admired.

There are moments when I look at scenes in “Picard” and think, “Poor guy, [laughing] he looks terrible. He’s having such a bad time.” That wasn’t my intention, but that was what was being communicated. Anxiety, stress, irritation. I never yelled as Picard — I mean, I may have done — “ The line must be drawn here! ” [pronounced “hee-yah,” much-memed dialogue from the film “ Star Trek: First Contact ”], for which I was made fun of for decades. Actually, there was one like it in the last episode, and I thought, “At least, because there aren’t any more episodes, nobody will be making fun of me.” We made fun of one another a lot.

‘Star Trek’ is the greatest sci-fi franchise of all. Why it’s stood the test of time

Full of ideas and emotions, the ever-expanding ‘Star Trek’ canon is still finding new ways to go where no TV show has gone before, 55 years on.

Oct. 28, 2021

Were there any kinds of scenes you particularly enjoyed or didn’t enjoy playing?

I have to admit that when we got into Season 5, 6 and 7 [of “The Next Generation”], there were days I wished I could be doing something different — when you do 178 episodes there’s bound to be repetition. And there were some things about “Picard” I was uncomfortable with, when I thought it was nudging its way toward being a reunion show. But there were not many. And the way the show has been directed, and lit, and staged, it’s so impressive. So many times I feel I’m watching a movie and not a TV series.

I looked forward to those scenes where Picard was not just anxious but actually frightened. Or confused. Or not knowing what to do. I got great satisfaction out of playing those things, because they allowed me to investigate, and release, aspects of Jean-Luc that had really never appeared in “Next Generation.”

Patrick Stewart

What do you think you brought to the character that wasn’t necessarily on the page?

Well, I very quickly came to understand that “ Star Trek ” was not naturalistic television. And there was a sort of formality about being the captain. I was the captain of a starship, and I sat in the center seat, and I had assistants on either side of me and people running the ship down there in front, and it very much reminded me of numerous Shakespearean situations I’d been in onstage. And I thought, “That’s how I should regard this role, as if it were ‘Henry IV,’” which is about brave men. And very quickly I got to know the cast.

Does that family of actors reflect on the family of characters?

I think so, yes. Your use of the word family is in fact very accurate. That is what we became. If you add Whoopi Goldberg, who joined us in the second season, and John de Lancie, who came in as Q. We became so close, and that’s grown over the years.

Last night, I watched Episode 9of Season 3, and this morning, I watched the final episode. There had been a little conflict about how it should end, and the script we held when we started shooting had an ending I was thrilled by — I thought it was absolutely perfect — I can’t tell you what it was — and then when we were shooting, a problem occurred. It was the last day and, oh, it was getting so late and we had so much to do. And I said, “We can pick that up anytime, it’s only me involved.” We never did it. So the ending I loved was never filmed. Instead, it was one I wasn’t happy about — until this morning.

Until you saw it.

The impact that the final episode had on me was unexpected and almost overwhelming. When it finally finished, I had to call out for my wife and go give her a hug because I felt so deeply connected with what I’d watched.

The way the series ends is wonderful. And I so badly thought it was totally wrong when we shot it. But the director and producers, in particular Terry Matalas, who directed it, his instinct was absolutely right, and my instinct was only protective, whereas he was going deeper into what made me feel this morning the whole effect it had on my life and career, this show. And I promise you, if you’d come to see me at half past 8 this morning, you would have found me in my wife’s arms, wiping away the tears.

It has the necessary elements: a bar, Shakespeare and poker.

But it has something else, doesn’t it? It has feelings.

Meet the women of Star Trek: Picard

Picard and Dahj in Star Trek: Picard

Credit: Matt Kennedy/CBS

Star Trek: Picard is one of the most anticipated series of 2020, and for good reason: It brings back a fan-favorite character in an entirely new situation. Jean-Luc Picard is no longer in Starfleet, and it's clear that his parting wasn't exactly amicable. He's on his own, on a new mission (the circumstances of which are quite unclear), but without the resources he once had.

Like any Star Trek show, Picard has an amazing supporting cast — and there are quite a few incredible women on the roster. (As an aside, I've seen the first three episodes, and there are quite a few more women than are listed here, but won't be spoiling anything for anxious viewers.)

Here's what we know about the major female characters in advance of tomorrow's premiere.

Isa Briones as Dahj in Star Trek: Picard

Credit: James Dimmock/CBS

Dahj (Isa Briones)

Dahj, played by Isa Briones (who was Peggy Schuyler in the touring production of Hamilton and was the understudy for Eliza), might be the biggest mystery of Star Trek: Picard . The little we know about her tells us she’s a vulnerable young woman in some kind of serious trouble — but also, judging from the trailer, she has pretty incredible abilities. Speculation is that she’s somehow tied to the Borg, considering the cast list, or Data, because Brent Spiner is guest-starring in the show. Who (and what) Dahj is will likely play a central role in the series.

Alison Pill as Agnes Jurati in Star Trek: Picard

Dr. Agnes Jurati (Alison Pill)

We're not quite sure what role Dr. Jurati will play in Star Trek: Picard , but she’s been described as a doctor who has the same goals as Jean-Luc. Pill is a fantastic actor who has quite a few shows under her belt, and it will be interesting to see how she handles the technobabble (it's not clear whether she's a medical doctor or a scientist). Either way, it’s safe to say she’ll fit in perfectly with this dynamic, brilliant cast.

Michelle Hurd as Raffi Musiker in Star Trek: Picard

Raffi Musiker (Michelle Hurd)

Hurd is a television icon, so it’s incredibly exciting that she’s bringing her exceptional talent to the Star Trek universe. She plays Raffi Musiker, someone who worked with Picard in his post- The Next Generation , post- Nemesis days. Hurd teased in an interview that Raffi is "haunted," and promotional material has described her as an addict. It will be very interesting to see how Raffi fits into the larger story, and what kind of pain she’s trying to mask with her vices.

Jeri Ryan as Seven of Nine in Star Trek: Picard

Seven of Nine (Jeri Ryan)

We last saw Seven of Nine, the former Borg, in the series finale of Star Trek: Voyager . Over 20 years later, what is she up to? And why is Picard, who hasn’t previously met her onscreen, looking Seven up now? We don’t know the answers to these questions — Seven has clearly embraced a more human (and dare we say badass) look in the previews. But we don’t know what she’s been doing, though the inclusion of Jonathan del Arco as Hugh in the cast lets us know that Picard has a Borg connection. In an interview, Jeri Ryan made it clear that she’s not even allowed to say whether Seven still goes by her Borg designation or has chosen a new name. There’s quite a bit of mystery surrounding her appearance in the show, but given what an amazing character she is, it’s safe to say we’re excited for it.

Deanna Troi (Marina Sirtis)

At the end of Star Trek: Nemesis , Deanna Troi was leaving the Enterprise, as her new husband, William Riker, had finally accepted a command of his own. Now, two decades later, they both seem to be enjoying retirement (and raising their children!). It seems as though they have opted for a simpler life, but it isn't clear how that came about. Did they decide to retire to start a family, or were they involved in the situation that led to Picard leaving Starfleet? Only time will tell!

Laris (Orla Brady)

Laris is a brand-new Romulan character (she could also be Vulcan based on appearances, but judging from the fact that Laris laughs in the clip we've seen and that the storyline seems to concern the Romulans, I feel safe making this judgment call). She and Zhaban, who appears to be Laris' partner, seem to be companions or helpers for Picard on his French vineyard.

Star Trek: Picard's Jack Crusher Actor Hopes For Spinoff As "A Massive Dinner Party"

  • Ed Speleers hopes for a "massive dinner party" style spinoff for Star Trek: Legacy receives positive response from fans and stars.
  • With uncertainties around Star Trek: Legacy, Jack Crusher's future hangs in the balance, waiting for the green light from Paramount.
  • Fans eagerly anticipate potential spinoff series featuring Captain Seven of Nine from Star Trek: Picard's season 3 conclusion.

Star Trek: Picard 's Jack Crusher actor, Ed Speleers has shared his hopes for a potential spinoff, likening it to " a massive dinner party ". The prospect of Star Trek: Legacy has had a hugely positive response from fans and stars alike, all of whom are keen for the story of Picard 's 25th century to continue. The ending of Star Trek: Picard season 3 teased a potential spinoff series that followed the adventures of Captain Seven of Nine (Jeri Ryan) and the crew of the USS Enterprise-G. While Star Trek: Legacy , remains hypothetical, it hasn't stopped fans asking the stars for their opinions on a potential Picard spinoff.

Ed Speleers commented on the potential spinoff during Star Trek: The Cruise (via TrekMovie ), during a panel discussion about Star Trek: Picard season 3. Members of the Star Trek: Picard cast were asked about Star Trek: Legacy , prompting John de Lancie and Ed Speleers to share their own perspectives on the hypothetical spinoff. Read John de Lancie and Ed Speleers' quotes below:

John de Lancie: I have no idea. I would be the last to know. And I never think about it because as far as I’m concerned, it is being concerned about whether you’re going to get invited to somebody’s dinner party. You can’t spend your life being concerned about things like that.
Ed Speleers: I hope, I know we did mention about dinner parties, but I really, really hope we have a massive dinner party coming on.

Ed Speleers' Star Trek Future Depends On Picard Legacy Spinoff

Having been introduced as the successor to both Admiral Jean-Luc Picard (Patrick Stewart) and Dr. Beverly Crusher (Gates McFadden) in Star Trek: Picard season 3, Ed Speleers' Jack Crusher is an important character for Star Trek 's future . However, as Star Trek: Legacy remains a hypothetical project for now, there's nowhere else in the current crop of Star Trek TV shows for Ed Speleers to appear as Jack Crusher. Star Trek: Discovery is set in Starfleet's far future, long after Jack Crusher would have died, and the same is true of the in-development Star Trek: Starfleet Academy series.

Star Trek: Legacy is the only place to continue Jack Crusher's story.

Star Trek: Lower Decks and Star Trek: Prodigy both take place before the start of Star Trek: Picard , meaning that Beverly and Jack would still be in hiding. Star Trek: Legacy is, therefore, the only place to continue Jack Crusher's story. If the proposed Star Trek: Picard spinoff doesn't get the green light, then Jack Crusher could just fade away, his adventures continuing in novels and comic books. That feels criminal for a character with such potential for future adventures on screen, especially as Ed Speleers is keen to continue playing the role of Jack Crusher.

With such a groundswell of support from fans, Star Trek: Legacy feels like a no-brainer, but there are many financial aspects for Paramount to consider. It's still hoped that Ed Speleers gets his wish for a " massive dinner party " that invites John De Lancie as Q, and many other Star Trek: The Next Generation -era legacy characters. While there is still an outside chance of a follow-up movie, Star Trek: Legacy still feels like the best way to continue the stories of Star Trek: Picard 's Jack Crusher and the crew of the USS Enterprise-G.

Star Trek: Picard

After starring in Star Trek: The Next Generation for seven seasons and various other Star Trek projects, Patrick Stewart is back as Jean-Luc Picard. Star Trek: Picard focuses on a retired Picard who is living on his family vineyard as he struggles to cope with the death of Data and the destruction of Romulus. But before too long, Picard is pulled back into the action. The series also brings back fan-favorite characters from the Star Trek franchise, such as Seven of Nine (Jeri Ryan), Geordi La Forge (LeVar Burton), Worf (Michael Dorn), and William Riker (Jonathan Frakes).

Star Trek: Picard's Jack Crusher Actor Hopes For Spinoff As "A Massive Dinner Party"

Screen Rant

Captain picard’s star trek tng love interest vash, explained.

Captain Jean-Luc Picard's archeologist love interest, Vash, was played by Jennifer Hetrick in Star Trek: The Next Generation.

  • Vash, an archaeologist with a shady past, stirred intrigue with Captain Picard and reappeared on Deep Space Nine.
  • Actress Jennifer Hetrick, who played Vash, had a real-life romance with Patrick Stewart.
  • Star Trek: Lower Decks introduced its own version of Vash in archaeologist Petra Aberdeen.

Captain Jean-Luc Picard (Patrick Stewart) had a few love interests throughout Star Trek: The Next Generation , but Jennifer Hetrick's Vash was one of the most memorable. Unlike Captain James T. Kirk (William Shatner), Picard did not regularly go on away missions, and he certainly did not regularly romance alien women. Picard spent much of his free time aboard the USS Enterprise-D, reading his favorite books and sipping Earl Grey tea. For the most part, Jean-Luc kept his friends at arm's length, and he allowed very few people into his heart.

Captain Picard's most captivating love story in Star Trek: The Next Generation was not quite a true romance, but involved a will they/won't they dynamic with Dr. Beverly Crusher (Gates McFadden). One of Jean-Luc's most significant romances aside from Beverly begins in TNG season 3, episode 19, "Captain's Holiday," while Picard is enjoying a much-needed vacation on the "pleasure planet" Risa . Soon after arriving on Risa, Picard encounters Vash, who greets him with a kiss despite the fact that the two have never met. Picard then gets caught up in an archeological adventure with Vash and the two begin a brief romance.

Every Picard TNG Love Interest (Before Laris)

Who was vash in star trek: tng, vash also made one appearance on star trek: deep space nine, in ds9 season 1, episode 7, "q-less.".

Although Vash had once been a legitimate member of the Federation Archaeology Council, she was most interested in making a profit from selling the ancient artifacts she found (or stole). Because of her illicit activities and questionable ethics, Vash was banned from several planets and had her membership to the Daystrom Institute Archaeological Council suspended twice. After Vash and Picard reconnected in TNG season 4, episode 20, "Qpid," Vash left with Q (John de Lancie) to explore more of the universe. Vash later appeared in Star Trek: Deep Space Nine , where she found a kindred spirit in the Ferengi bartender, Quark (Armin Shimerman) .

In her initial encounter with Captain Picard, Vash not only used Jean-Luc as a means to distract the Ferengi, Sovak (Max Grodenchik), but she also lied to him about the artifact she was searching for on Risa.

Jennifer Hetrick has appeared in many television episodes over the years, including Beverly Hills 90210, Sliders, Alias, Criminal Minds, NCIS, Cold Case, and Prison Break . She portrayed Arnie Becker's ex-wife Corrinne Hammond on L.A. Law , as well as Walter Skinner's wife, Sharon Skinner, in one episode of The X-Files . Hetrick appeared in the films No Regrets , A Poor Kid's Guide to Success , and had an uncredited role in 500 Days of Summer . Her most recent role was as Mrs. Berlinger in an episode of the CBS medical drama Code Black .

In his autobiography, Making It So: A Memoir, Patrick Stewart opened up about some of his past relationships, including one with Jennifer Hetrick. The two had an affair during the filming of Star Trek: The Next Generation , which resulted in the breakdown of Stewart's marriage with his first wife, Sheila Falconer. Stewart does not go into much detail about his romance with Hetrick, but he does open up about his struggle of going through his first divorce.

Patrick Stewart and Jennifer Hetrick dated throughout parts of Star Trek: The Next Generation's run and were reportedly engaged during the filming of "Qpid," although they never married.

Patrick Stewart and Jennifer Hetrick dated throughout parts of Star Trek: The Next Generation's run and were reportedly engaged during the filming of "Qpid," although they never married. Stewart was then married to Wendy Neuss from 2000 to 2003, before marrying his current wife Sunny Ozell in 2013 . Hetrick later married as well, although she has kept her relationship very private.

Star Trek: Lower Decks Had Their Own Vash

Petra aberdeen is a member of the independent archaeologists guild..

Star Trek: Lower Decks season 3, episode 5, "Reflections," introduced a character very similar to Star Trek: The Next Generation's Vash. Like Vash, Petra Aberdeen (Georgia King) was an archeologist who played by her own rules. Although Petra had previously been serving aboard the USS Victory, she left Starfleet to become an independent archeologist. While running a recruitment booth for the Independent Archaeologists Guild, Petra met Ensigns Brad Boimler (Jack Quaid) and Beckett Mariner (Tawny Newsome) , who were manning a Starfleet booth. Petra's true reason for being at the recruitment fair was to steal the Grand Nagus' staff from the nearby Museum of Antiquities and return it to the Ferengi.

Many of Petra's missions to retrieve and return previously stolen artifacts were sponsored by none other than Admiral Jean-Luc Picard, as revealed in Star Trek: Lower Decks season 3, episode 10, "The Stars At Night."

After Mariner was transferred to Starbase 80 as punishment for something she didn't do, she joined Petra aboard her ship, the Free Spirit. When Mariner learned about the dangerous malfunction of the AI within the Texas-class automated starships, she convinced Petra to come to the aid of the USS Cerritos. The Free Spirit then rallied all of the California-class starships to form an armada against the rogue Texas-class ships. Mariner then returned to Starfleet and her position on the Cerritos. Petra Aberdeen was a fascinating character who will hopefully return, and she would likely not have existed if not for Star Trek: The Next Generation's Vash.

Star Trek: The Next Generation , Star Trek: Deep Space Nine , & Star Trek: Lower Decks are available to stream on Paramount+.
