Why Jerry Ryan rejected a veil in one of the worst films of Star Trek

Stuart Baird 2002 “Star Trek: Nemesis” One of the numerous dates for the privilege was in the early first decade of the twentieth century. “Star Trek: Voyageer” ended in mid -2001, when he ended a long period of climbing of the trip. “Star Trek: Enterprise” first appeared in late September 2001, and it was an introduction to the original “Star Trek”, a century before the days of Captain Kerk. It looked different, had a different tone, aimed at bringing a trip to a new generation. Unfortunately, due to the September 11 attacks, the world is no longer in the mood of science fiction privilege for a long time focusing on diplomacy, peace and living in harmony. The audience is now more likely to war, revenge and violence, and Star Trek is no longer a place in the world.

In 2002, “Star Trek: Nemesis” was released to the masses of non -entrance and low box office receipts. “Nemesis” got a budget of $ 60 million, only 67 million dollars worldwide, making it “Star Trek” the least well -known in the history of “Star Trek”. It has 38 % approval for spoiled tomatoes (based on 172 reviews), only outperformed “Star Trek V: The Final Frontier” (23 %) and Olatunde Osunsanmi’s “Star Trek: Security 31” (18 %) as the worst movies A journey you see.

This is not too good. Nobody, not even hard -line trips, really loves the “enemy”. Kate Mulgrew may be enthusiastic about The Trekkies by Kate Mulgrew in the role of Admiral Janeway, captain of the USS Voyageer team, but this was not enough to involve people. Also, as it happens, Jerry Ryan, the co -star of Mulgrew, known as Borg Escapee Seven of Nine, was shown on a veil in “Nemesis”, but she rejected it. according to Podcast Nerdist 2011Ryan rejected the role because she just disturbed “Boston to the public”, and wanted to stay away from a trip.

Keep in mind that Ryan has just left a group of “Voyageer” after four profitable seasons. The star of the show has become, where I love the book “Voyageer” to give her stories. While Ryan loved the fame that Voyager brought, she was not very fond of the dress she had to wear on “Voyageer”, which was A complex and uncomfortable suit with a built -in corset. Ryan was also afraid of exposure to the dove, and she wants to introduce herself as an actress that goes beyond science fiction. David E Kelly, “Boston General”, was a great opportunity for her, and she jumped on her. At that stage of her career, a return to “Star Trek” was not something interested in. She said:

Rick (Berman) called and said, “Do you want to be in the movie? “I was like” Hmmm “. I just did four years in a cat suit, and I just got David Kelly’s offer, which was my only chance to get out of” Star Trek “, who was still frankly fear that I could not escape from that and do so Another thing. “

Rick Berman was a long -term executive and President of Honsho for all “Star Trek” things at the time. Seven of nine were common, and Berman felt that she would attract people to a movie. However, Ryan felt that Berman was only arbitrarily and fearful that seven of nine would have no dramatic meaning.

Ryan was concerned that seven of nine would not really be with the “enemy” crew. The Baird, Ready, was a continuation of “Star Trek: The Next Generation”, and starred in this show. “Voyageer”, at the same time, had only the minimum intervention with the characters of the “next generation”, and seven had a great relationship with her personally. Ryan suspected that she was only asked to be part of the “enemy” because seven were common, not because they had a good idea of ​​a story for her. I put it like this:

“I told them if there is a reason this character appears in the story, then at all. If there is a good reason, then it is certain. ‘) It was like” Do you want to do a veil at the wedding? ” To be in the movie, so why do I want to do a veil? “

“The Wedding” refers to the wedding between Captain Riker (Jonathan Frakes) and Troi (Marina Sartis), which begins the movie.

Ryan returned to the round of seven of nine in 2020, Join the “Star Trek: Picard” team. By that time, he became seven violent hunter, and it was imagined time to meet Picard outside the screen to enhance friendship. Either seven and Picard, after all, survived a horrific experience with Burg, so they had at least a common thing. in 2020 interview with ComicBook.comRyan said that she initially laughed at the invitation to be “Picard”, but when she heard the ideas of the producers for seven, she became “fascinated.” “This made a lot of logic,” she said.
