Bringing her back now makes sense for the show. Someone called me and approaching me, but it was like, ‘why? There’s no reason from a story point for the character to be in it.’ Originally, they wanted her on the Bridge – in the crew – but it just didn’t make sense for the character, the story, or for anything.

I think it was Nemesis – whatever they were shooting right when I finished Voyager, and they wanted to put me in the movie because she was a popular character. I know there were rumours about you joining the cast of the Next Generation at one point for the Nemesis movie. That’s why, 20 years on, they’re revisiting these characters. That’s why this franchise has survived for over 50 years.

They’re both incredibly enthusiastic, and God bless them. Speaking of the fans, have you noticed a difference between the UK audience and US audience and your fanbase across the channel? I’m sure the fans will be happy with that response. So who would win in a fight between Seven of nine and Chakotay? And I never knew they would write a Borg flashback episode, so it was like, “oh, God.

Was it tough getting the full Borg make up done? This is more appropriate, and totally what this character should be wearing given what she’s doing with her life, where she’s been, what she’s been through, and who she is right now. It was the 90s, and an entirely different time. That catsuit was an amazing costume – striking, visually – it was an amazing feat of engineering. is there anything you miss about the catsuit? Speaking cosmetically, you get to wear some proper boots this time. I don’t know, you’ll have to wait and see. Will we see anymore without giving anything away? How about the rest of the Voyager crew? We’ve seen cameos of Admiral Janeway on screen over the years. Technically she wasn’t in Starfleet the last time we saw her. Last time we met her, she had been a member of Starfleet, so she hasn’t returned to Starfleet. She’s been working independently with a law-keeping group because the galaxy’s a mess and she’s trying to find some order. She’s a lot more hardened, more cynical, I think. She’s been through a lot of bad, dark stuff in the last twenty years. Obviously, without giving anything away, you said the character has changed. I don’t know, I haven’t finished recording everything yet. Are we going to see you popping up in the months to come? Last year, you contributed some extra bonuses, and voice overs for the game, like exploration narration. But I love what they’ve created for her, who’s she’s become, and how resilient she is to everything that she’s been through, which I can’t tell you about. I said goodbye to her, I thought we’d told her story and we were done with that. I thought that, 20 years ago – 17 years ago – that that would be it. Is it a surprise to be playing Seven again, not just on TV, but in Star Trek Online? I loved how the character has developed, and it’s going to be fun. We asked her about reprising her role once for Picard and Star Trek: Legacy, how she was approached to star in Star Trek: Nemesis, what it was like wearing the Borg costume, and much more.

With the brand new Star Trek series Picard starting recently on Amazon, we got the chance to catch up with Jerri Ryan, the actor responsible for bringing Seven of Nine back to our TV screens as part of the show. One of the franchise’s most popular characters is undoubtedly Seven of Nine, the former Borg drone who made her first appearance in Star Trek: Voyager. Ever since Star Trek debuted on our TV screens over 50 years ago, the science fiction drama has spawned countless television shows and films, as well as video games, audio dramas, and more.
