In “Star Trek: Strange New Worlds” Una Chin-Riley (Rebecca Romijn) aka Number One has received more character, depth and a little twist. The character has been part of the “Star Trek” universe since 1965, but that she is an Illyrian only became known through “Star Trek: Strange New Worlds”.

The twist that she’s a genetically enhanced augment, carrying that fact around as a secret, brought a lot of joy to actress Rebecca Romijn. She hints in the Ready Room, the “Star Trek” aftershow series, that her story goes even further!

It was such an interesting facet to add to this character who makes such a demanding, meticulous, and consummate first officer. And I believe that she hides this dark secret by striving to be as perfect as possible at work. […] When this idea was first presented to me, I was excited. And you will see how violently this will make waves.

At the end of the third episode, Una’s secret of being an Illyrian was revealed. Because the Federation fears Illyrians, Una has had to carry this secret with him at all times and has never revealed it before. However, Captain Pike reveals to her that he will not betray her to the Federation.

However, Romijn’s statement indicates that there will definitely be “violent” consequences. We’re curious to see how her secret leaves the Enterprise and whether Una will have to do detention.

The new episodes always appear weekly on the US streaming service Paramount+, which will not appear in Germany until the end of 2022. But we can help you to see “Star Trek: Strange New Worlds” in Germany right now! We list you all “Star Trek” new releases!
