News Martin-Green: The Sky’s The Limit

Yes, her performance will very much speak for itself.

And given her acting history that won't be a good thing.
IDK - Look at the acting disaster that is Marina Sirtis <-- And she lasted 7 seasons, a bunch of one off cameos and 4 films. ;)
 
This isn't anything new. Many news articles going back to early 2016 were saying how Discovery has "the first female Captain/lead" or "the first black Captain/lead" because whoever wrote them had barely any knowledge of Trek to begin with; maybe a passing familiarity with some of TOS and some of TNG. DS9/VOY are never in the public mind when it comes to Star Trek.
 
While Sirtis could be a bit stiff at times she was neither as bad as Green has been nor the lead.
IMO - Sirtis was WAY WORSE.

It's probably why she was about to be fired - and would actually have been (and she's told this story a few times) had Denise Crosby not jumped ship.

Yeah - she can really deliver lines...oh, wait...

Which is why I feel insulted when these non-fans tell me that Star Trek was always a "white men only" series, as to them it's the "Kirk, Spock, Khan, and Patrick Stewart Show", instead of actually doing their research.
