Each new Star Trek character: section 31 classified

This publication contains spoil For “Star Trek: Section 31.”

Judging by the final provocation presented in the new movie “Star Trek: Section 31”, Paramount+ does not make its extra -scratch squad yet. “Section 31” is a slightly mixed bag, especially given how long it was in development, but the film about former mass murders Philippa Georgiou and her new Ne’er-Do-Wells squad works well enough like the beginning of Something new: unlike the “television movies”, it has been announced.

As an introductory chapter, “Section 31” works thanks to the strengths of your cast and the intriguing charm of almost all the new characters. Does the film borrow too generously from the dynamics of family superheroes such as “The Suicide Squad” and attraction movies such as “Ocean’s Eleven?” Sure. But he goes out with his thanks to the pleasant novelty of his Ragtag antihero band, which includes a mech suit with Himbo, a vulcan commanded by a malevolent microorganism, an increase with a chip on the shoulder, a super intelligent chameloid, a DelTan morally flexible and an officer of the star fleet of Goody-Two-Shoes. By establishing its history outside the limits of the central moral organization of the franchise, “Section 31” can introduce some truly novel characters with great potential. Here is the spoonful full of spoiler in each of them, on a scale of super boring to super friendly.

Despite being the leader of the section 31 and the ostensible male protagonist of the film, the expert agent Alok (“Power” and “Kick-Ass”, Omari Hardwick) is so not characteristic that he can also mix with the background screen. This is not Hardwick’s fault: he does an admirable job with the role of meat and potatoes that gave him, but Alok is still the softest character in the film for a long shot.

In New York Comic in October 2024Hardwick described his character as “not suitable because (he has) many mental problems.” He also says that Alok “has some bones to choose from”, and that he wants to make Georgiou “pay the price for some things he has done.” There is only the slightest indication of all this in the film with which we finish, in which it almost immediately gets Philippa aboard a dangerous mission that, according to him, could help her redeem himself. It also reveals that it is a remaining increase in the Eugenic War of the Earth, a name of Khan’s adjacent names that really does not lead much of anything in the film. With the “Section 31” making the leap of a series in film, I cannot avoid asking me how much of the character’s depth and personality was on the floor of the cutting room.

Rachel Garrett is not really a new “Star Trek” character, but her version played by “Hannibal” and “The Killing”, student Kacey Rohl certainly seems to be. The future Enterprise-C captain appeared in the episode of season 3 “Next Generation” in yesterday’s company “, played by Tricia O’Neil. In the episode especially that doubles time, the Enterprise-C arrives through A crack in Spacetime, and its impulse to the future changes the course of the story, and the members of the crew of Captain Picard. That Lieutenant Garrett currently has nothing to do with the company.

Rachel’s character is less expressed than it is explained, since Philippa describes her as “a stick so far in his back, he is coming out of his mouth.” His only real function in the film is to remind everyone not to kill people and present one side of the stellar fleet that is presented as naive and hypocritical. “Starfleet does not murder!” She tells the team at one time, despite the fact that section 31, a group that makes murders, is part of Starfleet. Rachel is boring now, but if this set has the opportunity to grow, the versatility of Rohl and the Funky of undercover of Rohl show that he deserves the opportunity to relax a little in the future, or at least obtain some more juicy stories.

“Star Wars: Section 31” is the opposite of the typical “walk” rate in almost all the senses, and the inclusion of Deltan Melle’s seductive (“Ginny & Georgia” and the actress “in the dark” Humberly González) In the team it is no exception. “Star Trek” has always been a sexy franchise but relatively without sex; He has been dancing around the subject with plots on Pon Far and invited stars dressed as a miniskirt from the beginning, but most of the time, he favors intellectual connections and loyalty laios for consummated love. The Deltans, a species that first appeared in “Star Trek: The Motion Picture”, are a Humanian Human join the stellar fleet. According to shared press materials By Startrek.comHowever, the elegant Delan Melle did not sign a vote, which we assume that makes it a kind of Bond Professional girl.

We have to make assumptions here because we don’t really learn Melle much throughout the movie. She receives some good jokes and seems to help the team making all men in their orbit the language were tied to the point of vulnerability, but it is a character too great to sit on the sidelines as much as she. In addition, we do not even listen to the vote of celibacy starts from everything, only described as a “trap for honey to walk”. A professional flirting with impeccable makeup that can explode a heart -shaped gum? We are already under your spell.

There is nothing more controversial for “walking” fans than a project that gets with the established vulcan culture, so Fuzz (the actor “One Piece” Sven Ruygrok) is quite intended to cause wave life. The presence of a Vulcano laughing in the trailer of “Section 31” was already strange enough, but the reality of Fuzz’s situation is even strange. Actually, it is a microscopic named Nanochemistry, pulling the strings inside the brain of a vulcan without name for nefarious reasons. It is also very Irish, in a quite stereotypically, ready to fight.

Leaving aside the questionable cultural representation, Fuzz is one of the most intriguing characters in “Section 31” because its story feels so completely unfinished. He has thousands of children along the way, an angry southern wife and an evil plan that, despite not agreeing with the plan, may not have killed him. Even more interesting: we don’t know anything about his host body, how he found it or what happened to the Vulcan consciousness when he decided to establish himself. Fuzz is a bit of plague, but Ruygrok’s performance makes him more fun than it should be, and he (and his host) are the type of characters that could obtain true tragic stories if he is given the appropriate time necessary to flourish .

I will say what we are all thinking: “Star Trek” needs more hymbos. Starfleet is full of the best and most brilliant in the galaxy, which means that people like Zeph, the Australian brother who uses the Mech suit played by “True Blood” and the actor of the “Captain Marvel” Robert Kazinsky, does not always stand out . But a crime trap of outer frown, such as “Section 31”, has the entire room in the world for a character that fills the great silly antihero quota, and Zeph is especially fun.

Zeph is described in the film as “heavy in artillery, under intellectual coefficient”, and Philippa also says that it looks like a Swiss razor. ” But his panties backed with a bustling and bustling attitude that would have made him fans who had not been killed in the middle of the film. Kazinsky takes full advantage of his time on the screen and laughs laughs, such as when Zeph is offended after Philippa differs between his body and the suit he uses full -time (he has “dysmorphia wick”, according to quasi), and when We see it clearly, get lost in the sauce having a conversation about “Mech Life” while it is undercover in the bar. Sweet Dumb-Dumb Zeph, we barely know you, but I’m sure you’ll live in Fanfiction, if not in the “Star Trek” fee.

Sam Richardson does everything that is part of Better, and when it comes to “Section 31”, the star of “The Afterstry” and “Veep” is the glue that maintains the precarious tonal mixture. His chameloid character that changes in shape is extremely intelligent, and is both charming and adorably uncomfortable. “Sometimes quasi sees so many options that the brain freezes,” Melle explains when he begins to stumble upon his words when he meets Philippa, but it seems clear that he is especially tied by the tongue around the elegant and sexy antihero of Yeoh. He also received a joke for every occasion, and although the film script can be a bit forced, Richardson makes each line feel natural.

Inadvertently or otherwise, “Section 31” seems to be a pastiche of pop culture of the last decade, and quasi shares the same sense of indecision-lindo (and understanding of the advanced theories of existence) as “The Good Place” Sweetheart Chidi (William Jackson Harper). With luck, the Chameloid will get more space to grow if he returns for future stories of “walk”, but the basis of a great character is already there, and Richardson plays it perfectly. Of all the rookies introduced in the “Section 31”, Quasi is the most complete and endearing from the beginning. He is also the member of the team who would love to see a bis on screen.
