Star Trek: Picard - Everything We Know About Season 3

9. Family Ties

LeVar Burton himself dropped a couple of hints via his social media that the La Forge element in Picard could be bigger than expected.

The USS Titan-A is helmed by Commodore La Forge's daughter, Ensign Sidney La Forge (played by Ashlei Sharpe Chestnut), but the series also has Ensign Alandra La Forge assisting her father in an as-yet-undisclosed role. Played by Burton's real-life daughter Mica, Alandra might well be an assistant to her father but as with many things, this is unconfirmed.

Speaking of family, we also know of the return of Mr and Mrs Troi (Riker!). Season three will see Jean-Luc and his former first officer butt heads. This was noted at the recent promotion event when paralleled to the friction in the relationship between Picard and Beverly Crusher indicating that not everything has been smooth sailing between the former shipmates.

At several points in the trailer, it can be seen that Riker, while casually attired, is wearing his captain's pips accompanying both Picard and Worf, perhaps indicating their mission is on behalf of Starfleet.

A Star Trek fan from birth, I love to dive into every aspect of the franchise in front and behind the screen. There's something here that's kept me interested for the best part of four decades! Now I'm getting back into writing and using Star Trek as my first line of literary attack. If I'm not here on WhatCulture then you're more than welcome to come and take a look at my blog, Some Kind of Star Trek at http://SKoST.co.uk or maybe follow me on Twitter as @TheWarpCore. Sometimes I force myself not to talk about Star Trek.
