    Dragon Con: Anthony Rapp REALLY Wants to Direct “Star Trek: Discovery”

    This weekend, Dragon Con is taking place in Atlanta, GA. Even if you couldn’t make it to the annual Labor Day event, the organization offered a virtual option for fans this year. During Sunday’s “Star Trek: Discovery” panel, the gathered series stars fielded a question about whether or not they’d ever want to direct an episode of the Paramount+ show.

    Anthony Rapp, who plays Commander Paul Stamets on “DISCO,” responded that he absolutely wants to. He revealed a bit of his own film school past, and also said he’d been shadowing various directors on the series. One of which being “Star Trek” royalty Jonathan Frakes, who Rapp referred to as his “mentor.”

    Mary Wiseman, who plays Ensign Sylvia Tilly, sorta kinda alluded to Rapp having more to say on the subject, possibly meaning he HAS directed for the show. Rapp wouldn’t confirm nor deny the possibility.

    So, hopefully we’ll see the “Rent” star’s name as director for a future episode of “Star Trek: Discovery.” Season 4 will reportedly premiere on Paramount+ sometime in 2021. We’ll keep you updated.

    You can catch this and other panels via Dragon Con’s official virtual offering for only $10, which will give you access to the entire catalog of available videos for one full year.

    Mary Anne Butler (Mab) has been part of the fast-paced world of journalism since she was 15, getting her start in album reviews and live concert coverage for a nationally published (print) music magazine. She eventually transitioned to online media, writing for such sites as UGO/IGN, ComicsOnline, Geek Magazine, Ace of Geeks, Aggressive Comix (where she is still Editor-in-Chief), Bleeding Cool (where she was News Editor), and now Nerdbot as Editor-In-Chief. Over the past 10 years, she’s built a reputation at conventions across the globe as a cosplayer (occasionally), photographer (constantly), panelist and moderator (mostly), and reporter (always). Interviews, reviews, observations, breaking news, and objective reporting are the name of the game for the founder of Harkonnen Knife Fight, a Dune-themed band with an international presence. Though she be but little, she is fierce.
