Warning: SPOILERS for the Star Trek: Strange New Worlds episode “Charades” are ahead!
With Star Trek: Strange New Worlds taking place a little over half a decade before The Original Series, the prequel show has room to flesh out certain elements that were only briefly touched on in the show that launched the popular sci-fi franchise. In the case of Spock, played here by Ethan Peck, along with seeing what his engagement with T’Pring was like, we’ve also seen him develop a unique chemistry with Christine Chapel, played by Jess Bush. That came to a head during the events of “Charades,” with Spock and Chapel kissing by the end of the episode. It’s something many Strange New Worlds fans have been waiting to see, and Peck and Bush opened up to CInemaBlend about shooting that romantic moment.
