Given the events of “Picard” and the delays of the writer’s strike, it’s considerably less likely we’ll get to see our old Q up to no good. Natasha has the smarmy attitude expected from a Q, so why not? Certainly welcome to a relative unknown in the role if they can pull it off, but she gets my vote.
I was thinking along the same lines recently but there’s been another bit of Trek news that’s been bouncing around and my head put both together.
Nic Cage as Q
I propose Diane Morgan, in character as Philomena Cunk. Just cause they’re immortal doesn’t mean every Q needs to be a semi-malicious super genius. Trek needs an omnipresent goober
Now I want a spinoff with (Philomena Cunk) Q and Data. Data asks her to define things, and she does (in her own unique way, obviously).
Can call it Cunk on Data (not to be confused with an earlier series, Lieutenant Yar on Data, which shows up as a separate line item on your hotel bill)
Hey, has anyone heard of what Gary Busey is up to nowadays? Might as well go full on chaos powerhouse!
Or Jake Busey, for that matter.
