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.
