Koenig remembers first speaking to Brannon Braga, one of many predominant writers on “Subsequent Era,” and the person who would finally co-create and run “Star Trek: Voyager.” Whereas sitting with different writers, Koenig was shocked to see the whole lot abruptly finish. He stated:
“I met with the folks at ‘The Subsequent Era.’ I met first with Brannon Braga. I do not bear in mind in the event that they invited me or if I urged that we get collectively and speak about me doing a visitor function. Then he wished me to fulfill with your entire writing crew. We had been in discussions about what this look might be as a result of there have been restrictions, like no time journey. Then the assembly was canceled, proper in the course of the assembly itself. They had been attending to the top of their final season and so they had been additionally getting ready for the finale.”
It is price noting that the two-hour “Subsequent Era” finale dovetailed instantly into manufacturing on “Generations,” which was launched in theaters solely 4 months after the sequence ended. It was certainly a busy time, and Koenig was already in talks to be within the film. One can see why govt producer Rick Berman felt he might merely finish a gathering with Walter Koenig. Sadly, it looks like the assembly was by no means picked up once more, and Koenig needed to simply go dwelling.
