Issue 626 of the British magazine Film Review features an exclusive interview with Patrick Stewart, in which he talks about the production of the last TNG movie, STAR TREK NEMESIS. Here are a few excerpts.

About the director Stuart Baird, he said, "The fact that he was from totally outside the franchise did mean that, unlike any of the others directors we've had on the films, Stuart was not familiar with some of the substance, some of the details of STAR TREK. So, from time to time he would ask for something or want something that couldn't be given because of the personality a character had or for technological reasons. But those instances were few and far between."
Stewart confirms that the movie almost didn't happen over matters of money, that several of the other cast members were offended by the offers made by Paramount and that he nearly walked away from the table.
"That's entirely true," he said. "I've never made a secret about it. Yes, indeed. I think [the movie coming together] was partly a result of the cast's dedication to the script as it was developing and to Rick [Berman] and John Logan and Stuart Baird and [Paramount's] willingness to be flexible in negotiating this. But, at times, it was extremely unplesant. And that was disappointing after 15 or 16 years."
The full interview can be found in issue 626 of Film Review.
