Fan favorite turned down his own series but still wants

With the new Star Trek series from Paramount+, the long-standing franchise has a fresh space wind in its sci-fi sails – and there is no end in sight. Several new spin-offs are planned or already in the works, like the university series Star Trek: Starfleet Academy.

A series spin-off with fan favorite Jeri Ryan as Ex-Borg Seven of Nine in the lead role But it slipped through our fingers, as the Star Trek star revealed at Spacecon in Texas last month.

Star Trek star Jeri Ryan rejected her own Seven of Nine spin-off

During the convention’s Star Trek panel, the actress revealed an upcoming one Star Trek: Seven of Nineplan, which she rejected out of personal conviction (via Comic Book):

There were conversations. And there was an idea that was actually pitched to me after the end of Picard, which isn’t the legacy series that fans want me to do. But that just wasn’t me …It didn’t feel like the right thing…But there were conversations. And if there’s one thing I’ve learned about this franchise, it’s: never say never. You just never know.

Actress Jeri Ryan joined the franchise from season 4 of the 1990s series Star Trek: Voyager. As an initially reluctant member of Captain Janeway’s Starfleet crew lost in the Delta Quadrant, the former Borg drone Seven of Nine (actually Annika Hansen) had to regain some of her humanity in order to see herself as an individual again.

In 2020, Ryan returned to the role in Star Trek: Picard. At first, however, not in a Starfleet uniform, but as a battle-hardened Fenris Ranger who wants to keep the peace in the Romulan Neutral Zone. At the end of the 3rd and final season, Seven finally becomes the Captain of the USS Enterprise-Gwhose adventures fans have been asking for a spin-off called Star Trek: Legacy ever since. In the best case scenario from season 3 mastermind Terry Matalas.

All Star Trek series are now streaming on Paramount+.
