Star Trek Star Thinks 'Voyager' Movie Should Have Replaced 'Nemesis'

Most Star Trek fans would agree that Star Trek: Nemesis was a disappointing final outing for the Star Trek: The Next Generation crew. Would Paramount have been better served by making a Star Trek: Voyager movie instead?

Star Trek: Voyager star Garrett Wang seems to think so. At Star Trek Las Vegas, Wang suggested an alternate plan that Paramount could have used that would have fixed two Star Trek problems at once: Nemesis’ disappointing story and Voyager’s rushed ending.

“I think Voyager’s ‘Endgame,’ the final episode, the first hour was amazing,’ Wang said (via Trek Movie). ‘The second hour tied things up too quickly, right? They should have aired the first hour on your television screen and on the end say ‘To be continued in a theater near you’ and film a Voyager two and a half hour movie, got rid of the Nemesis script. Because let’s face it, if your TNG feature film script is not as good as certain TNG TV episodes, don’t film it. Sorry.”

While fans can only imagine the alternate universe where Star Trek: Voyager got a movie, they learned a bit more about the rumor that Jeri Ryan, who played Seven of Nine on Voyager, was meant to have a role in Nemesis.
