There aren’t many actors who return to a role over 25 years…
[Laughs] It’s very surreal. But it has been, truly, just absolutely delightful to revisit this character. It’s something I certainly never ever expected to do. I was positive that I had said goodbye to her many, many years ago. [Laughs] She’s come as a delightful surprise.
Was there anything you wanted to bring or change for Seven in this final season?
No. There was nothing that I wanted to change, or do. I trust Terry implicitly, I’ve known him since I started on Voyager – he was a PA, delivering the scripts to the make-up trailer the year that I started. So we were both the new kids together and we became good friends. He is truly such a fan of Star Trek and loves it so deeply and respects all of these characters so much that I never had a doubt that we were in good hands.
I knew how respectfully Seven was going to be treated and with what love she was going to be treated by him. I just sat there and listened to what his idea was and I loved it. I still love it. I think Terry’s a genius. I think he’s exactly what Star Trek needed.
Are you happy where things are left with Seven by the end of season three?
