Star Trek: Picard Season 3: Michael Dorn & Michelle Hurd on How the Final Season Feels Like a Movie
Before Star Trek: Picard Season 3 premieres on Paramount+ on February 16, Collider’s Steve Weintraub spoke with returning stars, Michael Dorn, who was first introduced as Worf in Star Trek: The Next Generation, and Michelle Hurd, whose character Raffi Musiker originated in the first season of Picard. During their interview, Dorn discusses how filming action scenes in Picard compares to Star Trek: The Next Generation, how much time they spent with stunt rehearsals, how Picard Season 3 has a cinematic feel to it, and their character arcs.
Though the first two seasons of Picard were disappointing to some fans, Hurd calls Season 3 an “action-packed” “epic adventure,” with Patrick Stewart returning to the helm as the titular Jean-Luc Picard in a high-stakes mystery. The Next Generation’s Gates McFadden also reprises her role as Dr. Beverly Crusher, as does Jonathan Frakes as Will Riker, Marina Sirtis as Deanna Troi, LeVar Burton as Geordi La Forge, Brent Spiner as Lore, and Star Trek: Voyager’s Jeri Ryan as Seven of Nine from previous Picard seasons.
This season isn’t just about bringing back familiar faces, the show is also introducing fans to new talent, including Ashlei Sharpe Chestnut and Mica Burton as Sidney and Alandra La Forge and Amanda Plummer as the villainous Vadic. Others joining the fray are Todd Stashwick (12 Monkeys) as Captain Shaw of the USS Titan, and new series regular and associate of Beverly Crusher, Ed Speleers (Outlander).
