Brent Spiner & Series Three

[NCC-73515]

It would turn Data into a villain: I said let me die!!! You promised!!!

 

[Richard S. Ta]

He's Data 2.0. The second version of a character we've seen before.

I think this is more or less on the money.

 

[Lord Garth]

That sounds like an episode of Black Mirror.

Oh wait, it was!

I've seen that one. Or I think I have. Are you thinking of the Christmas Episode?

 

[Danlav05]

That feeds into my Data 2.0 theory.

Captain Kirk reincarnated in a golem

 

[JesterFace]

Might the big question be how many times more does Spiner get Data killed?

 

[Mr. Laser Beam]

I've seen that one. Or I think I have. Are you thinking of the Christmas Episode?

no, Be Right Back.

 

[dinzy]

Its an old new character that is supposedly better to find out exactly who he is by seeing it unfold. Least imaginative is B4 being revived and then having all of Data's memories and committing suicide.

 

[SpocksOddSocks]

Perhaps Lore's had some really, really good therapy and isn't a genocidal maniac any more. That would be a new old character.

 

[WarpTenLizard]

Dr. Soong's cousin, Ricardo.

 

[Agony_Boothb]

He will be playing Tada, Data's wacky cousin from england who is a magician

 

[Lord Garth]

Dr. Soong's cousin, Ricardo.

Ricardo for the win!

 

[Danja]

My wild speculation is that they're going to Genesis Planet Data and bring him back somehow. Sure it would undercut his death in PIC season 1, but look at what happened with Spock with ST II and ST III. Plus, he can also die a second time (again, much like Spock). Alternatively, they can always bring back Lore or B4 (they can use that magic doohickey from Season 1 to repair him.) Spiner can also play Yet Another Soong-type Android (TM) or Yet Another Soong Family Member (R). He can even be Noonien Soong in a fresh new golem body.

Spiner doesn't want to play Data again (he's said that androids shouldn't age).

 

[Tuskin38]

Even though TNG already said he does age.

 

[Lord Garth]

Even though TNG already said he does age.

Take it up with Brent Spiner, not us.

 

[Ar-Pharazon]

Dr. Soong's cousin, Ricardo.

Or his other cousin Annie Soong

 

[Reanok]

I'm curious what role he'll have in season 3 and what maybe revealed at New York comic con in a few days.

 

[Tuskin38]

I doubt it. Terry wants to keep it under wraps until the season airs.

 

[Methuselah Flint]

I doubt it. Terry wants to keep it under wraps until the season airs.

Which makes me think it won't be Altan from season one...

 

[Tuskin38]

Terry said he's playing a 'new old character', and that if they had a poster of him like they did with the rest of the cast, it would raise a ton of questions.
