Casting Star Trek: Deep Space Nine Reboot

9. Nog - Harry Melling

Harry Melling has come a very long way since playing Dudley Dursley in the Harry Potter movies. He has shown time and time again that with the right material, he can deliver strong and stand out performances.

He recently offered a supporting role in The Queen's Gambit, the Netflix limited series starring Anna Taylor-Joy. This is another example of his understated, yet multi-faceted, ability to mold, chameleon-like, to any role.

Aron Eisenberg made the role of the first Ferengi in Starfleet his own and he is very lovingly remembered by all Star Trek fans. There will never be another man like him. He is dearly missed and should most definitely be remembered in the performance of any player who takes on the role.
