Makeup department head Shauna Llewellyn tells IndieWire about getting the 'Star Trek: Discovery' family back together to explain Georgiou's origins.

The actor returns to "Star Trek," reprising her character Philippa Georgiou, who leads the franchise's first television movie now streaming on Paramount+.

Section 31 tries something ambitious, but it ultimately fails because of the iconic sci-fi saga's rich history and detailed lore.

Its surprising late-game cameo isn’t about franchise ties at all: It features a familiar actor who’s never appeared in Star Trek before. Section 31 star Michelle Yeoh told Polygon this one was all about the personal, real-world connections she made in her Oscar-winning movie Everything Everywhere All at Once.

After she first played starship Capt. Philippa Georgiou and her evil Mirror Universe doppelganger on Star Trek: Discovery, Michelle Yeoh was supposed to reprise the role for Section 31, a spinoff series that would continue to follow her fan favourite character.

Yeoh, a face of Balenciaga, connected the film's costume designer Gersha Phillips with the brand to create custom looks for the new "Star Trek" film.

Michelle Yeoh and Sonequa Martin-Green took to the red carpet Wednesday to celebrate the premiere of "Star Trek: Section 31," which lands Friday on Paramount+.

Section 31 lacks Star Trek iconography, and bringing back this classic starship from the Mirror Universe would have helped.
