It’s clear that not everything will be new, however, now that we know Q is back in Jean-Luc Picard’s orbit. “Despite 178 episodes of TNG and four feature films, there are events coming up in season 2 that have never been seen before,” Stewart teased at First Contact Day. With the first year’s main story arcs about a the Romulan Zhat Vash’s efforts to wipe out all Synthetic life and the reclaimed Borg Cube (now crash-landed on the Synthetic homeworld of Coppelius) now seemingly done and dusted, Star Trek: Picard season 2 is primed to seek out all-new worlds – and civilisations. But it’s going to have, I think, quite an impact.” But also there is another human aspect being introduced in season 2, which I am not allowed to talk about. “Was there any chance that this might have an impact on Picard’s personality or behaviour? felt it probably wouldn’t, but it lies there as an option should we need to take it. “I wanted to know exactly what they had done to me when they saved ’s life,” Patrick Stewart said in an interview with Gold Derby. Although Soong Jr made it clear that the new body is effectively identical to the old one – it will still age and die, for example – it’s going to have an effect on the way the 90-something character approaches his life. When Picard’s human body succumbed to terminal Irumodic Syndrome, his consciousness was transferred into to an artificial ‘golem’ body created by Dr Altan Soong, the biological son of Data’s ‘father’, Dr Noonian Soong. Jean-Luc Picard will be a new man in Star Trek – literally. Red alert! Big spoilers for Star Trek: Picard season 1 follow – change course now if you haven’t seen it yet.
