I know it’s been done to death all over the internet but not here yet!
If you could choose any actor or actress to be in Star Trek who would you choose?
I recently saw that Nic Cage said he was a Trekkie and I’d absolutely love it if he played an insane alien villain of some sort for an episode or two. Get him in star trek legacy as a crazy ferenghi or something.
Christopher Judge
…as the ship’s counselor.
Hah! Searching images with text is nearly impossible, but I did see a Martok image about doing battle against depression.
Indeed.
You get an updoot! And YOU get an updoot!
David Tennant would make a great anything, but it’d be especially cool to see him as a villain again.
Perhaps as an even more sinister than usual member of the Tal Shiar.
Jeffrey Coombs hasn’t been in Lower Decks, Prodigy or SNW yet. He needs to get on that!
I want to see him play a Q. Squeeze all of the smarm of Brunt and all of the smug power-tripping of Weyoun into one character.
Conversely, imagine a Q with the energy of Herbert West.

You’re right!

She was in Star Trek Beyond though.
And if Tom Paris needs sage advice from his grand mother, we shall get her, even if we have to pull her from a different universe!
I completely missed that
She played a good admiral, I’d love to see her back.
I know he’s appeared in the new movies before, but I still think Benjamin Cabbagepatch would make a good Data.
I’m sure no one would mind if he played someone else in a series, we are an open minded bunch. Plus, he’s just brilliant.
Britishname Cantpronounce?
Banana Cattywampus
*ahem* Moriarty
His holodeck episodes would be quite fascinating indeed.
I don’t think I could pick a single actor, but having anyone from the SG1 series would have a very high chance of making me literally scream in excitement haha.

CCH Pounder. She’s amazing in everything! I’d love to see Avery Brooks come back.
Second this. She’s always great.
+1 for Avery Brooks! I so would love to see him back.
Or maybe Glenn Howerton, if she’s not available.
I would love to see/have seen Sir Ian McKellen and Sir Patrick get a scene together.
Me too, loved them as prof x and magneto (even if the films were a bit…) so it would be nice to see them together again
I want to see Henry Cavill play a captain or maybe a klingon movie
Cavill, like all Superman actors, is on my list of people who’d play a great good-guy Betazoid.
I’m still hopeful the Quentin Tarantino Trek happens, mostly for his directing/writing but I guess it relates to the question since he usually acts in a some part in his films. What happened with this anyway?
I’d rather see Cronenberg take a shot at a limited streaming series.
He seems to have come to the end of the run of his body horror progression.
More, he’s already working in the franchise playing the enigmatic Kovich and knows the Toronto crews (and their parents in some cases he’s said).
The things that man will make come out of a transporter…
Nic Cage would be awesome. I’d love to see Daniel Radcliffe. He definitely has a lot of range.
Oooh that would be great!
I second and third Nic Cage.
My vote goes to Shailene Woodley. She would make a great Captain or Number One.
I just checked and I’ve never seen anything she’s been in. I will keep an eye out for her.
I really liked her in Divergent, but she was also great in Misanthrope.
Michael Ironside in his younger days. I would have loved to see him as a Trek captain in the style of his Starship Troopers character, ie a grizzled, take-no-prisoners leader, but would do anything for his people. Sort of a Lorca kind of captain, but Michael Ironside.

Imagine Browder and Black being John and Aeryn but pretending they have no idea who those characters are while playing them perfectly.
