Star Trek New Series: 10 Reasons It Should Be Captain Worf

6. Michael Dorn Is Really Up For It...

Michael Dorn, the actor who played Worf, actually confirmed his interest in the project via the website €˜Trek News€™, saying, €œI had come up with the idea because I love and I think he€™s a character that hasn€™t been fully developed and hasn€™t been fully realized. Once I started thinking about it, it became obvious to me that I wanted to at least put it out there, which I have, and the response has been pretty amazing. We€™ve been contacted by different individuals€“I can€™t say who and all that€“about wanting to come on board and be part of this. € WRITER€™S NOTE: Mr. Dorn, you can add my name to that list as well, sir. In fact, the driving force behind the creation of this show would appear to be Mr. Dorn himself, who is eager to wear a Fu-Manchu moustache, glue a brown Cornish pasty to his head and hit people with oddly-shaped shards of metal once again (in his defense, he was extremely good at it).
