The cancelled British Star Trek Monthly magazine features a somewhat olD interview with Star Trek Voyager star Kate Mulgrew, published just after the release of Star Trek Nemesis, and here are excerpts from the article.
Kate Mulgrew got the opportunity to play Janeway yet again when Star Trek executive producer Rick Berman asked her to shoot a cameo for [Star Trek: Nemesis]. The actress spent one day playing Admiral Janeway, as opposed to Captain Janeway.
KATE MULGREW: I was delighted to get that call. I was delighted to be giving Captain Picard [Patrick Stewart] his orders, as I had long wanted to do. Rick phoned me and said, 'I'd love you to come in and do this cameo for us. Can you do it?' I said yes. It was that simple. And it really wasn't a day on set. It was more like one hour, maybe two max. I was on a sound stage and Patrick Stewart was off-camera, and the scene was basically me telling him what to do. It was very fast. It was extremely organised. Rick Berman came down to the set and Patrick was, as always, very gracious. And that was it. I had to get on a plane in a matter of hours, so it was very fast and it was very satisfying. The shot itself was just me. It was just me on one little set. Captain Picard's not in the shot with Captain Janeway.
But did getting a promotion in rank change her approach to Janeway?
KATE MULGREW: It was interesting; the uniform I put on was Admiral Janeway's uniform, not Captain Janeway's. There is a difference. It's not just a uniform to me. You've got to understand, these kinds of specifics are very important to the actor. Certainly, I am no longer the captain on the Intrepid vessel that had been lost in space for so long. I am now the admiral - well and truly grounded and in a position of high command. So as the actress, even just for that hour or two I was there, I tried to take it to another level.
So what are the odds of Mulgrew putting on her uniform - be it Captain Janeway's or Admiral Janeway's - at some point in the future? It is not out of the realm of possibility that Janeway could turn up in a subsequent feature that includes charactrs from all the Star Trek incarnations. It is also not out of the realm of possibility that Paramount Pictures might one day reunite the [Star Trek: Voyager] cast for a television movie.
KATE MULGREW: I've said this before and I stand by it: it's all speculative that I would put on a uniform again. It was speculative before I put on a uniform for [Star Trek: Nemesis] and it's speculative again now. If, in fact, they would consider doing a [Star Trek Voyager] movie I would be very happy to talk to them about doing that. But as I say, it's all speculative at this point. I am open to it. I am certainly open to it
