Star Trek Legend Reveals Picard Season 3 Could Have Been Even Better

By Chris Snellgrove | Published 23 seconds ago

Most Star Trek fans agree with that Picard it was uneven in its first two seasons but managed to hold on gracefully for Season 3. However, one legend of this respected franchise recently revealed that his planned cameo was completely cut, and this cameo would have made the killer in the final season even better. Voyager actor Garrett Wang revealed that he will be included in it Picard Season 3 as a Starfleet captain but was written off the show entirely.

Harry Kim Loses Again

This came from Garrett Wang’s heated interview with TrekMovie which covered everything in his humor. Lower Decks came to him the condemned Picard a cameo. Originally, she was intended to play a narrative role similar to Shelby, the commander of TNG’s “Best of Both” crew that later appeared. Picard as an admiral. The concept of installing a Voyager The alumnus was not seen, but the actor explained how close the idea is to reality.

According to Garrett Wang, he actually got confirmation from his manager that he was cast Picard Season 3. However, his planned part keeps getting cut. As he put it, he originally had a three-episode arc, then it changed to two, then it changed to one. However, her manager told her that she would need to be in Los Angeles to fit the costume and that plans for her cameo had advanced far enough for her character’s name to appear in the scripts.

It was actually Garrett Wang Voyager costar (and Picard regular) Jeri Ryan who broke the news about how she was suddenly written out of the show. She told him that her character was in the script but, after many revisions, Kim’s character was nowhere to be seen. This caused Wang to be “depressed for many months afterwards,” although he eventually got a second chance to come back because of his arrival in the exciting episode of. Lower Decks.

Picard’s loss

Now, why are we so sure that Garrett Wang would have done it PicardBest final season? First, he would have been a much cooler cameo than Admiral Shelby. Fans only spent two episodes with Shelby while we spent seven years with Ensign Kim, and her sudden appearance would be as memorable and moving as when Tim Russ reprises his Tuvok character in the last episode.

Also, few Star Trek actors are more passionate about the franchise than Garrett Wang, and he would benefit greatly Picard a cameo. For context, the actor takes time out of his busy schedule every year to serve as Track Director for Dragon Con, the largest and best sci-fi and fantasy convention in the Southeast. This is someone who goes beyond just signing a few autographs to ensure that thousands of fans have a great time each year, and he would certainly use his cameo to continue making fans happy in his passionate way.

Finally, there is a fair argument that Garrett Wang deserves a Picard cameo, especially after the actor’s tragic story of punishment Voyager. In that latest show, he says he was blocked from directing episodes, he said he was ashamed of being fat, and that his character was kept as a decoration, all because he rubbed other producers’ noses in the wrong way. A cameo wouldn’t magically fix all of that, but writing Kim in as a captain could end up being Voyager’s lowly whipping boy for a long time.

Either way, things turned out well for Garrett Wang. He didn’t find his Picard cameo, but he got a cameo in one of them Lower Decks‘best episodes. And he too Voyager Cost Robert Duncan McNeill continues to delight fans with their fantastic Delta Flyer podcast, one that all Star Trek fans owe it to themselves to check out. We, at the moment, do not know what the future of this franchise is, but we do know one thing that Paramount needs to write down: the more Wang has, the better.
