The Original Series USS Enterprise in-joke actually gives Star Trek: Section 31's team a fighting chance when they need it most.

Makeup department head Shauna Llewellyn tells IndieWire about getting the 'Star Trek: Discovery' family back together to explain Georgiou's origins.

Yeoh, a face of Balenciaga, connected the film's costume designer Gersha Phillips with the brand to create custom looks for the new "Star Trek" film.

Its surprising late-game cameo isn’t about franchise ties at all: It features a familiar actor who’s never appeared in Star Trek before. Section 31 star Michelle Yeoh told Polygon this one was all about the personal, real-world connections she made in her Oscar-winning movie Everything Everywhere All at Once.

Section 31 tries something ambitious, but it ultimately fails because of the iconic sci-fi saga's rich history and detailed lore.
