10. Patrick Stewart Teared Up While Shooting His Farewell Scene
One of the best scenes in the film is the brief but poignant farewell between Picard and Riker as Riker heads off to captain the USS Titan.
It isn't overly sentimental but gives the two characters fitting closure as they go their separate ways. Despite its restraint, though, Patrick Stewart struggled to keep his emotions in check during shooting.
While filming, Stewart accidentally went off-script and began crying, having been affected by the palpable emotion of it all.
As a result, the scene had to be shot again once Stewart regained his composure, and to his credit, you'd never guess he was on the verge of tears in the final version. What a pro.
