THAT'S ME!" REBECCA ROMIJN says excitedly when she sees herself on the cover of SFX magazine. "I'm in Star Trek," she beams and greets us with a Vulcan salute.
"I got in trouble because I was doing it this way," she whispers, pulling her thumb to her hand. "Ethan said, 'That's not how you do it!' He told me you have to separate the thumb, which I wasn't aware of. He shamed me. He LLAP-shamed me. And then it started making me nervous every time I did it. I was like, 'Am I doing it right?'"
Romijn is in London to celebrate the launch of Star Trek: Strange New Worlds season two and is in high spirits. Make no mistake, she loves being part of Star Trek. Which is great, because we love talking about Star Trek...
How you feel that season two ups the ante from season one?
I think we gained a lot of trust from the network to give us freedom to take some chances. We had a great first season, it was fantastic and we were thrilled with how the show was received. I think the network let us start doing bigger and better things. So there's a lot of collaboration when it comes to genre.
We're a little all over the place this season. After [episode] six there are a few others that are just like, pretty major genre-wise, pretty epic. Now the producers and the writers, it's kind of an open door policy where they're like, "If you've got ideas, we're open", because we're having a blast coming up with ideas. So I've pitched a few ideas.

Making Alien - Jaws in Space - Forty-five years on from its original release, Alien continues to terrify. We dissect what arguably remains the most chilling instalment in the saga
The seven-strong crew of the commercial mining spacecraft the Nostromo seal their fate after reluctantly responding to a mysterious distress signal on a hostile planet. Here, a face-hugging alien from a derelict ship impregnates and later kills executive officer Kane (John Hurt) after its offspring is birthed onboard. After being unleashed, the fearsome newborn with acid for blood proceeds to dispatch the remainder of the crew.Ridley Scott's much more convoluted prequels have yet to reveal how the knowledge that led to this initial interception was acquired. However, the premise of the original Alien is perfect in its uncomplicated purity.
