Star Trek Beyond: Ranking Every Character From Worst To Best

12. Commodore Paris (Shohreh Aghdashloo)

There was a lot of intrigue when it was revealed a few months ago that legendary, Oscar-nominated veteran actress Shohreh Aghdashloo had been added to the film in late re-shoots.

Many assumed this implied a substantial re-shaping of the end product and Aghdashloo would be involved in a major subplot, but sadly, this isn't the case at all.

She appears for just a few short scenes as Captain Kirk's superior and does very little of significance or worth remembering. Her screen time totals maybe three minutes, and feels like a gigantic waste of Aghdashloo's talents.

Seriously: why hire someone so terrific for such a throwaway part?
