Of course I would do it. I loved it!&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Isaacs revealed that he has already spoken to producers about a possible return. &#8220;I have talked to them plenty,&#8221; he said. &#8220;Where and when? Nobody ever dies. There is a Prime Lorca. There are three different shows coming out and multiple seasons, and if I can squeeze back into that eight year-old&#8217;s uniform, would do. Who wouldn&#8217;t want to do it again? They are timeless stories.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>How does Isaacs see Prime Lorca, as opposed to Mirror Universe Lorca? &#8220;The point about the Mirror world that we built is it wasn&#8217;t meant to be how it was in <em>Mirror, Mirror<\/em>,&#8221; said Isaacs. &#8220;This was meant to be a Darwinian universe, just with a different political attitude that the strong should rule the weak. I don&#8217;t think he would be that many miles away from Prime Lorca. It wasn&#8217;t a coincidence that I sneaked the line in: &#8216;Let&#8217;s make the Empire glorious again.&#8217; It&#8217;s about a different political attitude&#8230;I think Prime Lorca would be pretty much the same.&#8221;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Last weekend at Star Trek: Las Vegas, as reported by TrekMovie, Jason Isaacs expressed his&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":51325,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2413,8677],"tags":[9176,9275],"class_list":["post-51324","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-cast-crew","category-star-trek-discovery","tag-isaacs","tag-lorca"],"featured_image_urls":{"full":["https:\/\/trektoday.com\/content\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/091317StockIsaacsLorca.jpg",580,225,false],"thumbnail":["https:\/\/trektoday.com\/content\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/091317StockIsaacsLorca-150x150.jpg",150,150,true],"medium":["https:\/\/trektoday.com\/content\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/091317StockIsaacsLorca.jpg",580,225,false],"medium_large":["https:\/\/trektoday.com\/content\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/091317StockIsaacsLorca.jpg",580,225,false],"large":["https:\/\/trektoday.com\/content\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/091317StockIsaacsLorca.jpg",580,225,false],"1536x1536":["https:\/\/trektoday.com\/content\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/091317StockIsaacsLorca.jpg",580,225,false],"2048x2048":["https:\/\/trektoday.com\/content\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/091317StockIsaacsLorca.jpg",580,225,false],"newsphere-slider-full":["https:\/\/trektoday.com\/content\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/091317StockIsaacsLorca.jpg",580,225,false],"newsphere-featured":["https:\/\/trektoday.com\/content\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/091317StockIsaacsLorca.jpg",580,225,false],"newsphere-medium":["https:\/\/trektoday.com\/content\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/091317StockIsaacsLorca.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\/star-trek-discovery\/\" rel=\"category tag\">Star Trek: Discovery<\/a>","tag_info":"Star Trek: Discovery","comment_count":"0","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/trektoday.com\/content\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/51324","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=51324"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/trektoday.com\/content\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/51324\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":51327,"href":"https:\/\/trektoday.com\/content\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/51324\/revisions\/51327"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/trektoday.com\/content\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/51325"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/trektoday.com\/content\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=51324"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/trektoday.com\/content\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=51324"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/trektoday.com\/content\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=51324"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
