If Bryan Fuller<\/strong> had stayed with Star Trek: Discovery<\/em>, his vision for a Mirror Universe wouldn’t have been like the type shown in the original series.<\/p>\n

As part of an interview during Robert Meyer Burnett<\/em>‘s Robservations<\/em> webseries, Fuller explained his idea of a Mirror Universe. “The thing that really fascinated me in sitting down and crafting the story for Discovery<\/em> was the human condition,” he said.<\/p>\n

“What I really wanted to do in setting out was looking at the minutiae of simple decisions that have a cascade effect on our lives. So, it’s not about gold lam\u00e9 sashes and goatees versus no sash and clean-shaven. It is more about we are at forks in the road every moment of our lives and we either go left or right.<\/p>\n

“It makes me think of Joe Menosky<\/strong>‘s speech in [Star Trek: Voyager: Latent Image<\/em>], where The Doctor has a ‘Sophie’s choice’; he can only save one life. And he chose Ensign Harry Kim versus this other ensign and it is a split-decision and it causes his entire program to unravel because he can’t handle how his choice was always going to cost a life. It was his Kobayashi Maru.<\/p>\n

“So, there was something in the mistakes made by Burnham in Battle of the Binary Stars<\/em> that had this ripple, but the Mirror Universe was always meant to be an exploration of a small step in a different direction.”<\/p>\n
