I’m on the set of the “Star Trek” TV movie “Section 31,” seated in an opulent nightclub with a view of a brilliant, swirling nebula, watching Yeoh rehearse with director Olatunde Osunsanmi and her castmates. Originally, the project was announced as a TV series centered on Philippa Georgiou, the semi-reformed tyrant Yeoh originated on “Discovery.” But between COVID delays and the phenomenon of “Everything Everywhere All at Once,” there wasn’t room in the veteran actress’s schedule to fit a season of television. Yeoh was undaunted.

“We’d never let go of her,” she says of her character. “I was just blown away by all the different things I could do with her. Honestly, it was like, ‘Let’s just get it done, because I believe in this.’”

A few minutes later, dozens of extras in all manner of outlandish eveningwear file into the club, several of them made up as classic “Star Trek” aliens that fans might be surprised to see in this kind of swanky establishment. But I’m far more distracted by a different discovery: Georgiou is standing with a young Rachel Garrett (Kacey Rohl), a character first introduced on “Next Generation” as the older fearless captain of the USS Enterprise-C.

Looks like this is our first glimpse of the Section 31 film.

That's a common issue with serialized fiction, though I think Discovery's episodes have been pretty distinct since at least season three.

Episode 4: “Face the Strange”

“Mind bending and exciting, and a heck of a lot of fun.”

Episode 6: “Whistlespeak”

“Oh, classic TOS-style adventure!”

Go on...

It looks like the Netflix release is likely to be a full season drop, so...how would we like to discuss it?

My gut says to set up individual episode threads and pin a season index to the top of the community, but I'm open to suggestions.

I'll chime in here - I don't know if this is OP's issue, but I have experienced issues in the past with being able to clearly tell which languages in the list are selected, and/or the selected language settings saving properly.

I haven't played around with it in months, but at the time I thought maybe it was just my browser theme/system colour settings that were making it hard to tell exactly what was selected.

I agree with those who are saying that a list of possible languages with accompanying check boxes would be more intuitive than the current implementation.

I don't think many actors do all of their own stunts. If they get injured, the production is screwed.

Finding a stuntperson with the build of Doug Jones must be a unique challenge...

I guess so. I've just never watched Star Trek VI and felt like it had been affected by the fact that TNG was in its sixth season by that point.

I really don't understand this notion that a story is ruined because you're also familiar with stories that take place after it.

I know how WWII turned out, but there are stories set in that period that are worth watching.

The question mentioned "Legacy," but the answer didn't even reference that project indirectly.

Thinking about it, I guess I've been operating under the assumption that the additional footage was for some sort of montage, so maybe they were able to use existing footage.

Or maybe I'm completely wrong, who knows?

In context, Roth states, "we’re very excited to see it return to the big screen." That would seem to rule out that he's referring to the S31 movie.

I also think a summer release is highly unlikely for that, considering production only began at the end of January.
