Star Trek Deep Space Nine Cast: Where Are They Now?
4. Jadzia Dax - Terry Farrell
Terry Farrell of course played Jadzia Dax for Deep Space Nine's first six series, being memorably killed off in the sixth season finale, Tears of the Prophets. She also remains one of the only main actors to be killed on screen and not have her character come back in some form.
The reason for this was due to behind the scenes strife. Farrell's contract had ended and she wanted to negotiate a reduction the number of episodes that she appeared in. This had the unfortunate effect of angering the producers to the point where they decided they would give her all the time she could want and Jadzia Dax was killed off. Though this relationship has since been mended, it had not been fixed in time for the series finale What You Leave Behind, which features no tribute to Jadzia in the closing minutes.
Since then, Farrell went on to star in shows like Becker, where she remained for four seasons. At various conventions, she has expressed her regret at how the situation ended between her and, in particular, Rick Berman, who she cites as the main reason that Dax was killed off. Although officially it is stated that she did not give her permission to use her likeness for the show's finale, she has in fact stated that she was never approached about it.
In 2018, she married Adam Nimoy, and has a son named Max from a previous marriage. She has appeared in Renegades and continues to tour the convention circuits.
