Jeri Ryan is beloved by Star Trek fans, and while appearing at Spacecon in Texas recently, the actress was in full fan service mode, sharing some juicy details about a potential return to the franchise following her recent comeback in Star Trek: Picard.
Discussing her her iconic role as Seven of Nine, one fan in attendance asked “Has there ever been any talk of a Captain Seven show?”, with Ryan responding:
“There has been talk. And there was an idea that was actually pitched to me after Picard ended, which was not the Legacy show that I know the fans are asking for, that I want to do. But it just wasn’t me… It didn’t feel like the right kind of thing… But there has been talk. And if there is one thing I have learned with this franchise it is: never say never. You never know.”
It wasn’t long after Picard wrapped in 2023 that the idea of a follow-up spin-off began. A concept envisioned by showrunner Terry Matalas titled Star Trek: Legacy sprung up, which would have focused on the adventures of the USS Enterprise-G under the command of Captain Seven.
