Honestly, I am starting to hate the actor (irrational, I know) because of the type casting and he owns it so well. I would love for them to cast against the type, just because I would like to see him not be chewing the scenery as a villian.
He's great in Dear White People. I agree he owns the villainous stuff, but it would be great to see him as a hero. I think he'd make a great 'Picard' type Captain.
Disney princess, Star Wars character, MCU character, video game character, Stargate character...yeah, it's high time.
It's about time they got Vaughn Armstrong back again. Back in the day, he was the undisputed champion of Trek guest starring roles. Yet not ONE of the current shows has asked him to return. That's a mistake that needs to be corrected. Rapidly.
I think Jodie Comer would make an excellent first officer on any starship. Or any role Star Trek will cast her in
^ thats funny, visualizing his voice with that look in a strafleet unifotm; " I think i know what the problem is: The transwarp discriminator with the paraphoretic polarity inducers may impact that positronic brain which has a type L phase discriminating amplifier, so.. we probably have to kill him.... into Bolivian!"
Some more actors I’d love to see in Trek at any point: Jemaine Clement Henry Ian Cusick Jade Eshete Ennis Esmer Rick Gonzalez Martha Higareda Patti Harrison Michiel Huisman Manny Jacinto Nicole Kang Stephanie Leonidas Aasif Mandvi Amber Midthunder Daryl Mitchell (no only because he’s Tommy/Laredo in Galaxy Quest, but I’d be lying if I said I didn’t think it would be cool to have one of the GQ stars in Trek) Lauren Ridloff Lydia West
Greta Thunberg. She has a profile on iMDB. She'd fit right in with the rest of the historically liberal cast members. I figure, well, if Whoopi can do it, why not Greta?
