Malaysian Oscar Winner Michelle Yeoh To Star In Star Trek Section 31 Movie
By Alleef Ashaari|April 18, 2023|0 Comment
It was announced back in 2019 that Michelle Yeoh would be starring as the lead in her own Star Trek Section 31 series, but today, Paramount+ has announced that they have officially greenlit a Star Trek Section 31 movie.
In this special original movie event for Paramount+, Yeoh will return to her role as Emperor Philippa Georgiou, a character she first played in Star Trek Discovery. In Star Trek Section 31, Emperor Philippa Georgiou joins a secret division of Starfleet tasked with protecting the United Federation of Planets and faces the sins of her past. Produced by CBS Studios, production will begin later this year.
However, there is no release date yet.
In a statement, Michelle Yeoh said:
“I’m beyond thrilled to return to my Star Trek family and to the role I’ve loved for so long. Section 31 has been near and dear to my heart since I began the journey of playing Philippa all the way back when this new golden age of Star Trek launched. To see her finally get her moment is a dream come true in a year that’s shown me the incredible power of never giving up on your dreams. We can’t wait to share what’s in store for you, and until then: live long and prosper (unless Emperor Georgiou decrees otherwise)!”
Star Trek executive producer Alex Kurtzman said:
“All the way back in 2017, before the first season of Star Trek: Discovery had even aired, Michelle had the idea to do a spin-off for her character, Philippa Georgiou. She broke new ground as one of the first two women on screen in the pilot to usher in a new age of Trek, and now, six years later, Star Trek: Section 31 finally arrives on the heels of her latest groundbreaking win. Everyone on Team Trek couldn’t be more thrilled to have our legendary friend return home to us as we expand our storytelling into new and uncharted corners of the Trekverse. Long live Emperor Georgiou; long live Michelle Yeoh!”
Domenic DiMeglio, chief marketing officer and head of data at Paramount Streaming, said:
“We’re thrilled that Star Trek: Section 31 will be the next title in our Star Trek universe. Michelle Yeoh is an incomparable talent – she brought Emperor Georgiou to life in such an incredibly fun and nuanced way that the character immediately became a fan favorite. We’re so thrilled to welcome Michelle back to the Star Trek and Paramount+ family and can’t wait for fans to see what this special movie event has in store.”
Back in March 2023, our very own Tan Sri Dato’ Seri Michelle Yeoh made history by becoming the first Malaysian (and Asian woman) to win an Oscar or Academy Award. She won the Best Actress award for her role in Everything Everywhere All At Once at the 95th Academy Awards, or Oscars 2023.
