Patrick Stewart

Patrick Stewart
Creating a believable world on the ship was very important, and technically they got better and better and better at showing the ship too.
Patrick Stewart
I made a promise to myself that I would try to introduce something unexpected in every single episode of the series. It was largely to amuse myself as much as anything. I didn't ever want the audience to feel that they knew everything.
Patrick Stewart
But as I grew up as a child, falling in love with the theater and Shakespeare, my heroes were Sir Laurence Olivier and Sir John Gielgud.
Patrick Stewart
I think I came back from America a funnier and nicer person than I went.
