For years, Patrick Stewart was done with Star Trek and the adventures of Captain Picard. But now, it seems like the actor can’t stay away from the character.
While having a joint interview with his co-star Levar Burton, Stewart tells IndieWire that he’s open to returning for more Jean-Luc Picard adventures, even if it takes the story out of streaming and back onto the big screen.
Stewart says, “I think we could do a Picard-based movie. Now not necessarily at all about [Jean-Luc] Picard but about all of us. And to take many of those wonderful elements, particularly from Season 3 of Picard, and take out of that what I think could be an extraordinary movie. I keep telling people and mentioning it, and so far, there’s been no eager response, but it might well happen. And that would be, I think, a very appropriate way to say, ‘And goodbye folks.’”
Star Trek: Picard just aired its third season, much to the delight of longtime fans. It served as a way to bring back The Next Generation while advancing the stories of some fan-favorite characters.
At the time of writing, there are no current plans for a new Star Trek film in cinemas. Paramount+ is crafting a made-for-streaming film titled Section 31, which stars Michelle Yeoh. It will be the first in a series of Star Trek streaming movies.
Star Trek: Picard season 3 sees the return of Patrick Stewart, Jonathan Frakes, LeVar Burton, Michael Dorn, Gates McFadden, Marina Sirtis, Brent Spiner, Jeri Ryan, Michelle Hurd, and Daniel Davis alongside series newcomers Amanda Plummer, Mica Burton, and Ashlei Sharpe Chestnut.
