Star Trek: Discovery Lorca Actor Reveals Whether He Would Ever Return
Star Trek: Discovery actor Jason Isaacs is revealing whether he would ever return as Captain Gabriel Lorca. Created by Bryan Fuller and Alex Kurtzman, the show premiered on Paramount+, previously branded as CBS All Access, back in 2017 and serves as the seventh series in the ever-popular franchise. Beginning in the 23rd century, nearly a decade before the events of Star Trek: The Original Series, Discovery follows a crew on board the titular starship, who, after helping bring an end to the Klingon war and the threat of a rogue artificial intelligence, Control, find themselves in the future, where they must rebuild the United Federation of Planets.
Isaacs starred in the show's first season, playing Gabriel Lorca, who existed in the Mirror Universe and attempted to overthrow Philippa Georgiou and the Terran Empire, for which he was hunted down. After escaping into a parallel dimension, he assumed the identity of his Prime counterpart, eventually becoming the commanding officer of Discovery. Throughout the majority of season 1, audiences watched as Lorca manipulated those around him and used the starship to get back to his universe, ultimately planning to complete his coup and murder the Emperor. However, in what came as a surprise to many, he was caught by Michael Burnham and killed at the hands of Georgiou herself. Though Isaacs expressed the fate of Lorca as being absolute, fans of Star Trek: Discovery have questioned if the character, in any version, might appear again.
