She’s a tyrant who “murdered her own people by the millions.” And when someone calls her a “bad bitch,” she just smiles and enjoys the attention.
That’s Emperor Philippa Georgiou, played by Academy Award winner Michelle Yeoh, in the trailer for Star Trek: Section 31 coming in early 2025. The original movie features Yeoh reprising her role as Philippa Georgiou, a character she first played in Star Trek: Discovery‘s first season. She’s now tasked with protecting the United Federation of Planets while facing the sins of her past.
Written by Craig Sweeny and directed by Olatunde Osunsanmi, Star Trek: Section 31 is executive produced by Alex Kurtzman, Craig Sweeny, Aaron Baiers, Olatunde Osunsanmi, Frank Siracusa, John Weber, Rod Roddenberry, Trevor Roth and Yeoh and is produced by CBS Studios in association with Secret Hideout and Roddenberry Entertainment.
It was also revealed at Comic-Con that Miku Martineau (Honor Society) will play young Philippa in the movie. The rest of the cast includes Omari Hardwick (Power), Kacey Rahl (Hannibal), Sam Richardson (Ted Lasso), Sven Ruygrok (One Piece), Robert Kazinsky (Pacific Rim), Humberly Gonzalez (Ginny & Georgia) and James Hiroyuki Liao (Barry).
