Michelle Yeoh: The Force Behind ‘Star Trek: Section 31’ Movie Magic
The concept for this project originated in 2019, focusing on the popular character Michelle Yeoh from “Star Trek: Discovery,” who portrays Philippa Georgiou. Georgiou is initially introduced as a kind mentor figure who meets a tragic end and is replaced by her ruthless counterpart from the Mirror Universe, an alternate universe where Georgiou rules as the emperor of the oppressive Terran Empire. Despite initial resistance from the “Discovery” crew towards their former leader’s twisted persona, her talent for treachery and affinity for violence made her a prime choice to join another branch of Starfleet: Section 31.
