He addressed aging; the Picard character and how many seasons the new show might run.<\/p>\n<p>When asked about often playing older characters and characters coming to terms with that, Stewart said, &#8220;I&#8217;m not aware I played a character older than myself in that time. I hope that&#8217;s waiting around the corner.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>In the new Picard show, Picard will be older than he was when fans last saw him in<em> Star Trek: Nemesis<\/em>. &#8220;In returning to <em>Star Trek<\/em> later in the year, the one thing that will be different about this version of <em>Star Trek<\/em> is that we have simply moved the whole narrative twenty years from when I last wore Jean-Luc&#8217;s uniform,&#8221; he said. &#8220;So, everything has aged. And we are&#8230;when the series gets released you will see things are very different than what they were.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Jean-Luc Picard is now a beloved part of <em>Star Trek<\/em> history, and Stewart spoke about how the fan reaction to Picard has affected him. &#8220;It gives me profound satisfaction to hear from people what an impact my role and the series had on their lives,&#8221; he said. &#8220;I have heard truly extraordinary stories about how people were affected by it. And that makes me very proud for all of us who were in it; because they were a great company&#8230;are a great company!&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Finally, when asked about a<em> Star Trek<\/em> film, Stewart said, &#8220;Oh lord, we are set up for possibly three years of this show, so if there is a film, it&#8217;s a long way off.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><iframe src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/2Jtbp2HxXQE\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>While doing promotion for The Kid Who Would Be King in London, Sir Patrick Stewart&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":50001,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2413,9651],"tags":[2439,2440],"class_list":["post-50000","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-cast-crew","category-picard-trek-series","tag-picard","tag-stewart"],"featured_image_urls":{"full":["https:\/\/trektoday.com\/content\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/Stewart020419RedCarpetNewsTVCBS.jpg",580,225,false],"thumbnail":["https:\/\/trektoday.com\/content\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/Stewart020419RedCarpetNewsTVCBS-150x150.jpg",150,150,true],"medium":["https:\/\/trektoday.com\/content\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/Stewart020419RedCarpetNewsTVCBS.jpg",580,225,false],"medium_large":["https:\/\/trektoday.com\/content\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/Stewart020419RedCarpetNewsTVCBS.jpg",580,225,false],"large":["https:\/\/trektoday.com\/content\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/Stewart020419RedCarpetNewsTVCBS.jpg",580,225,false],"1536x1536":["https:\/\/trektoday.com\/content\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/Stewart020419RedCarpetNewsTVCBS.jpg",580,225,false],"2048x2048":["https:\/\/trektoday.com\/content\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/Stewart020419RedCarpetNewsTVCBS.jpg",580,225,false],"newsphere-slider-full":["https:\/\/trektoday.com\/content\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/Stewart020419RedCarpetNewsTVCBS.jpg",580,225,false],"newsphere-featured":["https:\/\/trektoday.com\/content\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/Stewart020419RedCarpetNewsTVCBS.jpg",580,225,false],"newsphere-medium":["https:\/\/trektoday.com\/content\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/Stewart020419RedCarpetNewsTVCBS.jpg",580,225,false]},"author_info":{"display_name":"T&#39;Bonz","author_link":"https:\/\/trektoday.com\/content\/author\/tbonz\/"},"category_info":"<a href=\"https:\/\/trektoday.com\/content\/categories\/cast-crew\/\" rel=\"category tag\">Cast &amp; Crew<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/trektoday.com\/content\/categories\/picard-trek-series\/\" rel=\"category tag\">Star Trek: Picard<\/a>","tag_info":"Star Trek: Picard","comment_count":"0","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/trektoday.com\/content\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/50000","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/trektoday.com\/content\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/trektoday.com\/content\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/trektoday.com\/content\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/trektoday.com\/content\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=50000"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/trektoday.com\/content\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/50000\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":50002,"href":"https:\/\/trektoday.com\/content\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/50000\/revisions\/50002"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/trektoday.com\/content\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/50001"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/trektoday.com\/content\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=50000"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/trektoday.com\/content\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=50000"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/trektoday.com\/content\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=50000"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
