Who would make a great new Captain for Discovery?

[Burning Hearts of Qo'nos]

Kate Mulgrew, but playing Red from Orange is the New Black.

 

[EnderAKH]

Chuck Norris

 

[Locutus of Bored]

Kate Mulgrew, but playing Red from Orange is the New Black.

 

[Groppler Zorn]

There are three ways to do things:

1. Right way
2. Wrong way
3. Russian Janeway

Captain Wooooorrrrfff!!!

Seriously, with these writers it writes itself.

 

[Nerys Myk]

• Steve Rogers
• William Batson
• Leonard Snart
• Benjamin Franklin Pierce
• Carol Danvers
• William Bligh
• Wallace Binghamton.

 

[Gavin70]

This should be the new captain. All 13 of them.

 

[Jinn]

This should be the new captain. All 13 of them.

So, which of them do you leave out?

 

[Lord Garth]

The War Doctor doesn't like to call attention to himself.

 

[Mr. Laser Beam]

Vaughn Armstrong as Captain...hell, I don't care who, just get him on the show ASAP.

 

[the Sisko]

I'm going to use people from other shows I watch:

Actor/Actress:
Jeffrey Combs
Steven Lobo

These actors would play Captains with an agenda.

Roger Cross - Play a more Picard-like captain.

Mellissa O'Neil
Maggie Q
Lynsdy Fonseca: Play a captain along the lines of BoBS Georgio who can be an action hero when needed.

 

[XCV330]

Shoreh Aghdashloo as Captain or Fleet Captain Paris. In a few years she'll be Commodore, most likely.

 

[DaveyNY]

Oh come on people, this one is soooo obvious...

CAPTAIN ROBAU

 

[Mr. Laser Beam]

^ Faran Tahir does want to play Robau again - he says he would gladly return if DSC asked - but IMHO it'd be better if he's gone up the food chain a bit since we saw him last. President of the Federation, maybe?

 

[Wowbagger]

I honestly assumed the whole first page of the thread was Robau jokes. How was @DaveyNY the first to realize it?

On that theme: Ewan MacGregor would make a great captain. So would Ian McDiarmid, for that matter.

Thanks for the compliment ... I think ??

 

[Wowbagger]

You're welcome!

I've just tweeted my support for Robau/Faran Tahir to @startrekcbs. I'd encourage you all to do the same if I believed it could possibly make a difference. (But, since S2 has already started filming, it can't.)

I feel like DSC would give us Hayden Christensen instead, haha.

 

[Vger23]

Now that's hilarious.

 

[Ar-Pharazon]

Why, Captain Kangaroo, of course.

I say Captain Crunch!

The War Doctor doesn't like to call attention to himself.

But he is Captain Grumpy.
