THE FIRST PREVIEWS AND REVIEWS are in, and season three of Star Trek: Picard seems to be ticking all the right boxes. “I’m actually a little too close to it,” star Michael Dorn considers. “Also, I’m a little too critical of myself to really have an opinion about it in terms of what it is.” He pauses. “Saying that, I do know one thing – that the fans and people that watch it are gonna go ape, I really believe they’re going to enjoy it. Like, immensely.”
It’s no understatement – even for Dorn’s self-critical eye. The new season, which reunites the cast of The Next Generation, is an incredible piece of television which truly earns the much-used term “cinematic”.
“It’s a great show, they’ve done a really, really good job,” he agrees. “To the point that it really does look like a movie. Not just the special effects and that type of stuff. But I’m saying the way they crafted it is a movie – it should be a movie,” he laughs. “It should be, because it kind of deserves that platform.”
NOT A MERRY MAN
Dorn has played the role of Worf in seven seasons of Star Trek: The Next Generation, four feature films and four seasons of Star Trek: Deep Space Nine, totalling 282 on-screen appearances. How does this iteration of Worf differ for him?
