Patrick Stewart Invites Whoopi Goldberg to Return to 'Star Trek' | The View

Something that I need to bring up if that's okay. I'm here with a formal invitation and It's for you will be for me I'm Alex Kurtzman Who is the senior executive producer of Star Trek to cows and all of his colleagues of which I am one? Want to invite you into the second season? One of the jobs are coming to you now, huh? Yeah so many offers she's getting lately. Yes. Look at that smile She have to take the hair thing off it he said she can do whatever she This was one of the great experiences Like I said this on the show before it but Star Trek was one of the great experiences from the beginning Best time Well wonderful having you and we cannot wait to have you with us again one more time We have to move on to a question, but I'm really enjoying Whoopie being It's very rare Enjoy singing around the world including my husband who's just a huge huge huge Star Trek fan and was very jealous that I'm even in Your presence today, but you're a prize in your role as the legendary Captain Picard Obviously as we just said, but it's been 18 years since we saw him. So how do you play a character 18 years later? Well, it's easy Jean-luc Picard has aged 18 years Fictionally Patrick Stewart has aged 18 years actually Yeah, and I don't have to work on it because it's just me That's the best kind so It's it was not a problem. It really wasn't the problem had been initially in getting an understanding between Alex of myself and Akiva Goldsman and and Michael Chabon and Kirsten Baier, we have such a team of writers on this show. It's astonishing And I wanted to show that The cards world had changed because Patrick's world is certainly changed And we are no longer now living in the same kind of society We lived in 18 years ago, but you talk about this every morning. I was not news to you So what B's character is gonna age 18 years as well. If not, no. No she doesn't have to Do anything and besides she's Guinan? hundreds of years old and one knows History really so that could be one of the excitement's down the road. We haven't talked about how But she always talks about this time so fondly and and that works so fondly I Always so it's an icon especially loved by Millions and I think I might have been the last character that Jane created That he actually created I think might be mine I would say that were true lasting character whom we saw again and again and again, yes. Yeah, so it's it's it's Connected to the show Nicole. This is connected to all kind of stuff
