After several false starts, Paramounts finally making good on its years-old promise to give Michelle Yeoh a Star Trekvehicle of her own. Section 31puts the once-evil version of Phillippa Georgiou center stage, and its newest trailer puts a bigger emphasis on the action and ragtag crew thatll be aiding her in her exploits. Directed byStar Trek: Discovery producer/director Olatunde Osunsanmi, the filmRachel Garrett (Kacey Rohl) may be there to stop the team from breaking toomany rules, but Georgiou and her crew know theyll definitely be getting their hands dirty. Said crew invovles Changeoid spy Quasi (Sam Richardson), the exosuit-wearing Zeph (Robert Kazinsky), honeypot expert Melle (Humberly Gonzalez), and the tempermental Fuzz (Sven Ruygrok). Whereas the first trailer was glitzy and glamorous, this new one shows the team putting their skills to use and getting in the dirtaka, chaos like club shootouts and dogfights, while proclaiming they need to work together to stay alive. But were still not seeing them get up to the shady, morally compromising stuff previously seen or hinted at in earlier Star Trekstories. Youve got to figure that darkness is being hidden behind the spectacle and explosions were used to from Star Trekby now, especially since Georgious got to contend with her past as an Emperor back in her home universe.
