To boldly return

It has been announced that Patrick Stewart will be returning to the role of Starfleet Captain Jean Luc Picard in an new series for the streaming service CBS All Access. The last time Stewart played the role that made him a household name was in the film Star Trek: Nemesis. The film had disappointing box office returns in part to it being released in a crowded market place with Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers, Harry Potter and the Chamber and Die Another Day holding regin. Star Trek: Nemesis is notable for 2 things, giving Tom Hardy his first big and due to it's failure we had the 2009 reboot which saw Kirk, Spock et al played by new actors. We await more news of Picard's return.
