Star Trek Deep Space Nine Cast: Where Are They Now?
5. Ezri Dax - Nicole De Boer
Nicole de Boer joined Deep Space Nine in the role of Ezri Dax and appeared in all episodes of the seventh and final season. She was given quite a few episodes revolving entirely around her character, giving her in a short time the opportunity to really establish herself on the show. Ezri was a very different character from Jadzia, something that fans were quick to point out at the time, although opinion has softened a bit in the intervening years.
The introduction of her character allowed to writers to better resolve the Dax/Worf storyline, which by necessity was cut brutally short. She eventually ended up in a relationship with Julian, which sort of brings his arc with Dax full circle!
Following the end of the show's run, de Boer then took a starring role in The Dead Zone, based on the Stephen King novel of the same name. That series was created by the late Michael Pillar, with whom his son Shawn also worked. She appeared in an episode of Stargate Atlantis, which also starred Robert Picardo, although their characters did not share any screen time.
She was also a part of What We Left Behind, expressing fond memories of her relatively short time on the show. She currently has a recurring role on the Canadian series Private Eyes. She has one daughter named Summer.
