Patrick Stewart Annoyed by Star Trek Association

Features

By GustavoLeao / 16:51, 2 April 2006 / People

In a recent interview to the Radio Times, Star Trek The Next Generation star Patrick Stewart talks about his new series Eleventh Hour and his return to England. Here is an excerpt.

Q : Is it annoying that everyone still thinks of you as the bloke from Star Trek ?

Stewart : Yeah, very much so. I have often been irritated when I have been identified as an English actor exclusively know as Jean-Luc Picard, as though the rest of my life didn't exist at all. It continues to irritate now when I'm introduced as "Star Trek's Patrick Stewart". But let me be clear about it, it's not because I'm in any way uncomfortable about the work we did - I'm very proud of the television series and I'm proud that it will go on entertaining people for the rest of my life.

Read the full interview here.

Come on- I am saying he should continue to be a cheerleader. He had no problem talking about how great Nemesis was going to be and Insurrection and Generations. So was that lying or cheerleading. Oh yeah, that was when he was still going to make a dollar off us.

Look, if you like having him add to the fray badmouthing Trek and badmouthing you- fine- I am just saying I am annoyed by him as much as he is by us. He can go on saying anything he wants-- I, personally, was already tired of him and hope the next movie goes somewhere else.
