Jack Quaid and Tawny Newsome “never did the same thing twice”. <\/p>
The Star Trek: Strange New Worlds<\/a> and Lower Decks<\/a> crossover has been a long time coming, but it\u2019s finally almost here!<\/p>\n Although much has been kept under wraps, we know that Lower Decks stars Jack Quaid (Brad Boimler) and Tawny Newsome (Beckett Mariner) will join our heroes on the Enterprise for an epic adventure, with Rebecca Romijn (Number One) revealing that the two actors improvised their way through the episode.<\/p>\n Speaking exclusively to RadioTimes.com<\/a>, she revealed: \u201cIt was a blast! We had so much fun making it. Having Jonathan Frakes there to direct it, who\u2019s so great with comedy and knows our show, the whole Trek world so well inside and out. Having Tawny Newsome and Jack Quaid with their backgrounds in improv coming onto our set and just elevating the material, really playing with it and never doing the same thing twice.<\/p>\n \u201cWe really learn our dialogue verbatim, we\u2019re sticklers for words and because they have these backgrounds in improv, they came and played with it. It was inspiring watching them work, really fun.\u201d<\/p>\n Read more:<\/p>\n Fans got their first glimpse at the long-awaited crossover in the Strange New Worlds season 2 trailer, with Quaid and Newsome popping up on the Enterprise and exclaiming: \u201cSurprise!\u201d<\/p>\n Just how they got there and what role they\u2019ll play remains to be seen, but we can\u2019t wait.<\/p> Plus, fans could be in for more crossovers in future, with Strange New Worlds showrunner Akiva Goldsman not ruling the possibility out.<\/p>\n He told SFX magazine: \u201cI am as promiscuous as it comes when we discuss the crossing over into other series timelines. I delight in that.\u201d<\/p>\n Goldsman continued: \u201cI think our rule is always it can\u2019t just be fanservice \u2013 which is not to say that we don\u2019t love servicing fans, but there also has to be a real storytelling get. Of which I think there are many.\u201d<\/p>\n Star Trek: Strange New Worlds is available to stream on\u00a0Paramount Plus<\/a>.\u00a0<\/strong>Check out more of our\u00a0Sci-Fi<\/a>\u00a0coverage and visit our\u00a0TV Guide<\/a>\u00a0or\u00a0Streaming Guide<\/a>\u00a0to see what\u2019s on tonight.<\/strong><\/p>\n Try Radio Times magazine today and get 12 issues for only \u00a31 with delivery to your home \u2013\u00a0<\/strong>subscribe now<\/strong><\/a>.
