Star Trek: Voyager

Star Trek : Voyageractor Garrett Wang addresses whether he ’ll ever return to theTrekuniverse after his recent cameo onLower deck . Season 5 , episode 9 of Paramount+ ’s animatedTrekseries see to it the return , in non - live - natural action phase , of several characters familiar to hardcore fan . Deep Space Nine ’s Elim Garak and Julian Bashir made an appearance , as didEnterprise ’s T’Pol and , somewhat haphazardly , Star Trek : First Contact ’s Lily Sloane . But perhaps the most memorableLower Deckscameo came fromVoyager ’s Harry Kim , who appeared as multiple variants in the wacky multiversal episode .

Kim’sLower Decksreturn could indeed mark the last time the graphic symbol ever appear inTrek , as histrion Wang is well - aware , though he says he hopes Kim is n’t gone forever . appear onAll Access Star Trek , Wang discussed his feelings about potentially pull up stakes Harry Kim behind , while relating his boastful crossover idea involve aDSNcharacter , and the ever - mystical Section 31 – an theme Wang says was already partly adopted by a objet d’art ofTrekmedia :

If it is my last Star Trek , I ’ll be very deplorable . I would love to be able to reappear in something else . At one fourth dimension I was espousing the idea that there should be a show with Harry Kim and Jake Sisko , basically as Section 31 cooperator . And they actually hold that to the cartoon strip . In the Trek comic Christian Bible mankind , Harry Kim is a part 31 agent . I ’m care , ‘ What the heck ? ’ It was my idea , you put it in the comedian , you did n’t put it in live action , that ’s o.k. .

What This Means For Star Trek And Harry Kim

Is Section 31 Harry’s Way Back In?

Harry Kim has indeed joinedSection 31 , as outlined in IDW’sStar Trekcomic Holy Scripture issue # 17 . It ’s a strange turning for theVoyagercharacter , reach the dark and mysterious nature of Starfleet ’s occult division . But it ’s an idea Wang himself claims he in the beginning come up with , so he ’s obviously on - display panel with this recent development in Kim ’s vocation .

There ’s already a multiversal constituent toSection 31 , of path , after the Guardian of Forever ’s appearance onStar Trek : Discovery .

Wang ’s remarks indeed make it seem that he ’d be ready to go in any futureTrekuniverse labor . There are seemingly no hard feelings on Wang ’s side after theTrekcomic apparently pinch his idea for Harry Kim to join Section 31 . Wang would have been mindful of the upcoming Section 31 picture , of course of action , so perhaps his claim of ownership over the idea of Kim joining the wispy organization is , in fact , a not - so - subtle message for Alex Kurtzman and the rest ofTrek ’s current overseers .

Our Take On Harry Kim Returning To Star Trek

Anything Is Possible With Multiversal Storytelling

There is a big piece ofSection 31content coming soon to Paramount+ , in the form of a cyclosis movie . Wang ’s participation in the picture has not been announced , and given where the report sits in theTrektimeline – somewhere afterDiscoveryseason 1 – it would be odd if Kim crop up in . Then again , give the number of different world Kim has been zapped to over the years , perhaps the character could plausibly make a cameo appearance inSection 31(though this would still seem quite random , especially to those who do n’t read the comics ) .

Star Trek : Section 31releases on Paramount+ on January 24 , 2025 .

There ’s already a multiversal constituent toSection 31 , of course , after the Guardian of Forever ’s appearance onStar Trek : Discovery . Just as the Kelvin timeline move free things up for J.J. Abrams’Trekmovies , so could the Guardian ’s handling make life well-to-do for Kurtzman and fellowship when they seek to mess with canyon by bringing back characters , or have characters appear outside their own sentence . Ultimately , Star Trek : Voyagerstar Wang could get his wish to play Harry Kim again , thanks to the all - powerful ( and convenient ) Guardian .
