Geek favorites Bryan Fuller and Bryan Singer have been forthcoming about their hopes for bringing Star Trek back to the small screen, after the release of J.J. Abrams’ elusive sequel to his Trek movie reboot next summer. However, it turns out those two aren’t the only ones with big dreams about a new TV series set in that sci-fi universe – Michael Dorn is also taking steps to reprise his signature Trek role on a spinoff, tentatively titled Star Trek: Captain Worf.
Worf, Son of Mogh, of course, is the first Klingon main character on a Star Trek TV series. He appeared on The Next Generation throughout its seven-season run, then became a Deep Space Nine regular for its last four seasons. Dorn portrayed Worf in all four Next Generation films; in addition, he played Worf’s grandfather, Colonel Worf, in Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country.

Really? I liked worf, but really isn't 11 seasons enough?
ReplyDeleteWhy not! It can certainly be no worse than some of the shows that are broadcast and could even turn out to be good.
ReplyDeleteMichael Dorn is actually one of the few main actors, who could reprise his role without much issue regardless of his own age. The makeup and costume alone, is enough to hide his true age :)
ReplyDeleteI hope he succeeds in starting his "Captain Worf" series. I'll watch.
Why not indeed!If they can bring back the Munsters,and god knows what else they are planning on,lets have Captain Worf,if it doesn't work out he can ump back over to Star Trek if they do decide to bring that franchise back!
ReplyDeleteI'd definitely give it a shot if they are able to bring this to reality
ReplyDeleteI hope this happens! I loved to see what ship he commands!
