Michelle Yeoh's return as Philippa Georgiou in the new Star Trek movie 'Section 31' marks a significant moment in her career, harking back to her roots in espionage films like 'Tomorrow Never Dies' and 'SuperCop'. After a five-year hiatus from her last Star Trek role, Yeoh emphasizes the character's complexity, asserting that Georgiou cannot be simply labeled as evil despite her dark, violent actions. The new Star Trek installment diverges in tone from earlier series, offering a fresh perspective on Georgiou's character and her narrative within the broader Trek universe.
I've been playing that kind of agent for a while - even when I did SuperCop with Jackie Chan! It's the same kind of thing. You have to go undercover and get things done.
Philippa Georgiou is very dark, but you can't just say she's evil. Yes, it's murder and mayhem all around her. But we know where she comes from.
