With only two years of their five-year mission remaining, the crew of the U.S.S. Enterprise as seen in Star Trek: Strange New Worlds may soon be on their way out. It’s obviously not the end for characters like James Kirk and his soon-to-be First Officer, Spock — their adventures continue beyond the prequel and into The Original Series — but fans are loath to say goodbye to actors like Paul Wesley and Ethan Peck, each of whom have put their own spin on Trek’s most beloved duo. So reluctant are they for the end of Strange New Worlds, that some diehards have started a quiet campaign for an Original Series reboot. There’s no telling if something so bold would actually come to fruition, but Peck, for his part, is hoping.
Though Peck is well into his tenure as the enigmatic half-Vulcan, he’s careful about stepping on Leonard Nimoy’s 50-year legacy. Even now, with seven years as Spock under his belt, he’s keen to stay in his lane, especially when it comes to overlapping with his predecessor’s work in TOS.
