'Star Trek: Discovery' Tackles Big Action and Philosophical Puzzles in Season 2







		NEW YORK - The "Star Trek: Discovery" panel was undoubtedly "Best in Show" at this year's New York Comic Con (NYCC). Moderator Rebecca Romijn, who will play the role of Number One in Season 2, made some big questions to the cast. Romijn apologized in advance to the packed theater in case he had some wrong technical terminology.

		With an incredible new trailer to accompany the discussion panel, the audience absorbed many exciting news. After the panel, the cast spoke with a group of journalists gathered in the bowels of Madison Square Garden to answer their burning questions about what will come next. So, here is everything you need to know about what to expect in Season 2 of "Star Trek: Discovery."

		The trailer shows the crew dealing with a mystery that involves seven mysterious signals of unknown origin. In addition, the preview shows Spock experiencing visions of something called the Red Angel, which Michael Burnham confirms that she has also seen. "The seven signs, who sent them and what they mean is the momentum of season 2," Kurtzman said.

		"The Discovery team is trying to figure out what [the signals] Does it mean ... are they a message? We do not know. There's a lot of interesting conversation about science versus faith. What does faith mean? Even Starfleet can not really understand what they are, where they come from. "

		Kadin said she was more nervous about the first season than this. "We had a lot to gain from the fans who have loved this. [franchise] for so many years

		"I hope we have earned the right to push more buttons and go in more directions, because fans feel confident that we know we will return to a place that they feel really happy," he added. "There has been so much joy in the writers room and in production this season."

		"Now, we can tell stories that explore and, considering, we were in a moment of war last year, so there was a different kind of urgency and pace in everything, but we can explore many of the philosophical aspects. Trek ', at its best, has done, "said Kurtzman.

		"I'll say this season is bigger visually than season 1 ... and season 1 was pretty big," Kadin said, laughing. "But we went up a couple of steps in terms of what we're delivering in action sequences. [we’re] maintaining the balance between the great work of characters that is known as 'Trek', the humor by which you can meet 'Trek' [and] The consideration for which it is known. And then, the scope and scale of a big, big movie. All those things are played in season 2. "

	Doug Jones (Commander Saru)

		For a moment in the end of season 1, Saru served as interim captain of the USA. UU Discovery: although a permanent promotion to this position still seems to elude the poor Kelpien.

		"In Season 2, discover something about yourself and what it means to be a Kelpien that you did not know and that you do not know," Jones said. "This will alter it, it will challenge it, it's on a path of evolution, as we are all in the program."

		The third installment of the series of independent short episodes "Star Trek: Short walks, "called" The Brightest Star ", debuts on December 6 and will follow Saru shortly before joining Starfleet, when he was living on his home planet, Kaminar.

		"In the short film, we go back and discover how he grew up, his curiosity and how he got him off the planet," Jones said. "He is the only one of his kind who has been away from that planet, he is the one who joined Starfleet and the first to leave and become an officer.

		"Then, you discover shortly how much fear I had to face in my real world and how it became part of our daily routine. [fear] It was just an inherent thing that we had to live with. Even though he seems euphoric and on vacation, there is something unpleasant with [the Kelpians’] Predatory species. So, we can know more about all that through the short, and in Season 2, there are some links.

		"You can meet my sister, the lovely Sarana, played by the beautiful Hannah Spear, you will see more family and the appearance of my home planet of Kaminar." Jones said.

	Mary Wiseman (Ensign Sylvia Tilly)

		We just saw Tilly in the first episode of "Star Trek: Short Treks", "Runaway", in which she helps a frightened but challenging teenager from the planet of Xahea, recently with warp ability. In this 15-minute short, Tilly befriends Me Hani Ika Hali Ka Po (played by Yadira Guevara-Prip) and learns something about herself along the way. (The name of that character is shortened to just Po).

		"At the end of season 1, you know, she was admitted to the Command Training Program, so she will continue that trip, find out what it means for someone like her to be an officer," Wiseman said.

		"I'm excited." Tilly gets angry this season, as if she's angry, "Wiseman added, laughing.

		When asked if getting angry meant playing Captain Killy's alter ego that we saw in episode 10 of season 1. "In spite of yourself, "Wiseman seemed to enjoy the idea.

		"Oh, that's a good question," he said. "I do not know, if we all have a seed of humanity and it's [a] question of where we are raised, [that means] She has the capacity for whatever Killy is, which is cruelty, anger and coldness. So, yes, there has to be a part of that there, because maybe they are biologically equal? Yes, that's a good question, and I'll use it. I'll steal it from you in the future. "

	Ethan Peck (Science Officer Spock)

		In August, the creative team "Discovery". Announced that Ethan Peck, grandson of the legendary actor Gregory Peck, would appear in the role of Spock for the second season of the show.

		Portraying Spock is not an easy task. The character is half human, half Vulcan; his mother is Amanda Grayson, a human teacher of Earth, and his father, Sarek, is a well-known Vulcan scientist and diplomat. Throughout his life, the combustible combination of Spock's ancestry has caused problems.

		The events that take place in the program now, with Peck playing the role, occur 10 years before Spock's life in "Star Trek: The Original Series", so he is not yet fully mature.

		"I think you have to have a place to go with him, right?" Peck said. "[Original Spock actor Leonard] Nimoy is inimitable, and [Zachary] Fifth played an alternative universe Spock [in the rebooted ‘Star Trek’ movies]. And so, it's written on the page in a very different way. [for our show]. And slowly but surely, will become, I believe, who we have come to love and worship in "The original series."

		Peck added: "I like to refer to this quote from [the ‘Star Trek’ film] 'Ira de Khan', when [Capt. James T.] Kirk speaks at Spock's funeral, and says that of all the souls he has found, Spock's was the most humane. And I think that on the page that I have, he is a humanist. And he struggles to make sense of his love and his care for all beings. He is such a peaceful person. And that's very important to me in my construction of him. "

		Peck will be the ninth actor to play Spock, either on television or in the movie.

	Sonequa Martin-Green (Commander Burnham)

		What about Burnham? Throughout season 1, she had a rollercoaster ride, since she was blamed for starting the war with the Klingon Empire until losing her close friend and mentor, Captain Georgiou (Michelle Yeoh), upon learning that her new captain, Gabriel Lorca (Jason Isaacs), is actually an alternative mirror universe where Georgiou lives ... as Emperor of the Terran Empire. Set fasers to stun. 

		As for Burnham's bow this season, having regained his Starfleet rank as commander, the officer, once in disgrace, will now focus on repairing his own psyche.

		"Well, I'm going to say [that] Season 2 is deeply emotional, "said Martin-Green. Season 1 was also very emotional, but we moved to another level in season 2. This war is over, and now there is time to deal with the consequences. Now, there is time to deal with the residual effects of this war and the choices we had to make and the things we suffered and the things we lost. We have to deal with them now. "

		One of the biggest questions from fans is why Spock has never told anyone about Burnham, his adopted sister. "Oh, my God, yes, and we also mentioned that," said Martin-Green. "You know, there's a long game with 'Star Trek: Discovery', because it's hyper-serialized, and since it's a story told in chapters, there's a direct line and there are conceptual fabrics that take time to unravel ... But I really encourage everyone to trust that [with] Each question we raise in 'Star Trek: Discovery' may seem like it does not comply with the canon, each of those questions gets answered. All the world."

	Michelle Yeoh (The Georgian emperor)

		Ah, Emperor Georgiou, undoubtedly a character that Yeoh likes, perfectly illustrated when the actress jumped out of her chair during the NYCC panel and demanded that the audience bow for the last time. We saw Georgiou running a club in the Orion market in Qo'noS and being recruited by Agent Leland (Alan Van Sprang) of Section 31, the clandestine branch of Starfleet.

		- Star Trek: Discovery (@startrekcbs) March 24, 2018

		"When Leland came up to her with this black badge, she was very intrigued," Yeoh said.

		"And for Georgiou now, it's a very interesting role, because not everyone knows that I was from the mirror universe, so sometimes I can play the good captain, who is always very nice." Compassionate, kind and then, with Philippa Georgiou of the Section 31, she's cunning, twisted, and we're all in leather all the time, it's hot, I mean, she's hot! "

	Monte Anson (Capt. Christopher Pike)

		The third actor in NYCC that is new to season 2 is Mount, who joins the cast as Capt. Pike. We see him take over the Discovery in the opening episode of the season.

		Mount contrasted Pike's style with that of Captain Lorca's first season and said, "Well, that's what I liked most about the character, really." The writers did a very good job of creating a completely new type of captain with Captain Pike and really develop what we already know, part of that is that Pike knows [that] A really good leader has weaknesses, and publicly so. And he knows that his greatest asset is his crew.

		"What I really like about playing this character is that he is not afraid to admit that he is perplexed, and that he regularly throws the question to the people around him, which makes it a great bridge scene," added Mount.

		The actor also said that his performance was not influenced by the original actor of Capt. Pike, Jeffrey Hunter, who played the role in the pilot episode of "Star Trek: The Original Series," called "The Cage." That episode was later recycled as the two-part episode "The Menagerie" (Season 1, Episodes 11 and 12).

		"I felt I needed to do this from the beginning, knowing what I know and doing my research, I really was not undermining Jeffrey Hunter's performance in search of clues, maybe because there's a lot about him that we do not know about the character" .

	Shazad Latif (Lieutenant Ash Tyler / Voq)

		Probably the biggest rumor surrounding "Star Trek: Discovery" last season was whether Tyler was actually a Klingon spy and, more specifically, whether he was a Klingon named Voq surgically altered.

		As you remember, Voq, the Klingon albino, was excluded by Kol, and then we saw nothing of him for quite some time. Meanwhile, Tyler was able to gain the Captain's confidence and win the heart of Michael Burnham. The last time we saw Voq, he was talking to L'Rell (Mary Wiseman), a Klingon belonging to a spy house, who told Voq he could defeat Starfleet if he "sacrificed everything".

		Of course, when season 1 reached its climactic conclusion, everything was revealed.

		"I'll say the difference [is] when we were here last year ... only three episodes had aired. Our great episode - four - was aired the next day. Of course, we could not even talk about the fact that it was his [Tyler’s] First great episode, "said Latif.

		"We stayed [Season 1], and he escapes with L'Rell, and they go and try to act as ambassadors, almost, between the Klingons and the Federation and Starfleet. So he is [in] This type of limbo He and L'Rell are solving some things emotionally, "added Latif.

	Mary Chieffo (L'Rell)

		The last time we saw L'Rell helping to unite the Klingon Empire, he left with Tyler. Where do we find it in season 2?

		"Now she is officially the chancellor of the empire, and there are many struggles that come with that." As you will also have noticed in the trailer, there is also something of a new aesthetic underway: L'Rell has hair "That is a really exciting addition that has been made," Chieffo added.

		"In the episode of 'Star Trek: The Next Generation'" Rightful Heir "(Season 6, Episode 23) Kahless returns as a clone, without Worf's knowledge, at the beginning of the episode Kahless demonstrates himself by saying how He cut off a lock of his hair and dipped it in a volcano and water, and made the first battle weapon.With this sword, he killed Mogor, the terrible tyrant who was running Kronos at that time.

		"So, in the spirit of 'Discovery', we took that beautiful little scene that was planted from an earlier iteration and more or less about that.We see that in wartime, the Klingons would shave their heads, and in A time of peace, we begin to grow again.

		"I really love the symbolism of that, I think there's also a theme for L'Rell in the second season of embracing her femininity by embracing her power, which I think the two of you can coexist, it's not an easy path for her. men, specifically Klingon males, who are opposed to a woman being in power. "

		With the affections of Burnham for Tyler and the affections of Tyler for both Burnham and L'Rell, this could be the first love triangle of "Star Trek".

		"O rhombus of love, that's what we've been pushing, love rhombus," Chieffo said, laughing.





						


Anthony Rapp (center), who plays Stamets in "Star Trek: Discovery," appears in New York Comic Con 2018.

	Anthony Rapp (Lieutenant Commander Paul Stamets)

		Stamets was instrumental in controlling the displacement-activated spore concentrator unit, commonly shortened to DASH or spore unit. He mentions that Starfleet was working on some type of nonhuman interface, because Lorca almost killed Stamets with all those jumps to reach the mirror universe. We saw him having some quite triple experiences within the mycelial network and, of course, in the course of that trip, he lost his partner, Dr. Hugh Culber (Wilson Cruz).

		Rapp did not reveal anything on the panel or at the press conference, which is interesting. It also makes you wonder how difficult it must be for many of the actors (remind Latif last year) to keep quiet at these events when others are allowed to talk more freely about events related to their characters.

		"I find it really satisfying, as a long-term fan of these things, to see how much care is being taken to make sure all this fits," Rapp said. "But it's asking the fandom for some faith, and as we all know, many fandoms have often been betrayed by things, so sometimes I understand why they are skeptical, but they can have faith."

	Cruz (Dr. Culber)

		And if you thought that Rapp had been a secret, a sacred hive mind, Cruz could not say anything. As you may remember, Tyler experienced nightmares from undergoing surgery after Klingon's incarceration and asked Dr. Culber to perform an exam.

		Culber discovered that the structure and skeletal organs of Tyler had been surgically altered and that Tyler's personality had been superimposed on that of another person. This led the doctor to try to grind Tyler, provoking a reaction in which Tyler broke the neck of the good doctor in the episode "In spite of yourself" (Season 1, Episode 10).

		"Well, I did not know what was going to happen," Cruz said. "I do not always want to know all the things that are going to happen, because I'm in this program, the character does not know, so it's good to find out as he goes along." What the producers said was that something was happening, so I did not know if that meant we broke up, they sent us to another ship, we died, whatever. "

		Cruze sat for the last time in the panel alignment, and when it was finally his turn to answer a question, he immediately laughed. "You know they laugh at me for [being] Finally, because ... all I can say is one thing about all this. ... We find it where we left it. I mean, honestly, I can not tell you anything more than that. We find it where we left off. "
