Upcoming Star Trek movie Section 31 has been on quite the journey over the years. Spinning off from the trailblazing series Discovery, development began on Section 31 in 2017, with star Michelle Yeoh entering talks to reprise her role as Emperor Philippa Georgiou a year later. The actor helms the new film, which sees Georgiou face the sins of her past upon joining a secret division of Starfleet.
Starting out life as a spin-off series, since work began on Section 31 it has gone through many, many changes – which naturally led to several delays. As director Olatunde Osunsanmi says in the new issue of SFX magazine, which features the film on the cover and hits newsstands on December 31, it's been a long journey with the result now being billed as the franchise's first ever "television event movie".
