For English actor Dominic Burgess, a longtime dream came true when he appeared as the sentient reptiloid Mr. Vup in the Star Trek: Picard episode “Stardust City Rag.” A huge Star Trek fan, Burgess played Bjayzl’s bodyguard on Freecloud, delivering a memorable performance as an intimidating character with an exceptional olfactory system.
In this episode of The Line, hosts Chrissie De Clerck-Szilagyi, Brandon-Shea Mutala, and Justin Oser are joined by Burgess to learn about his love of Star Trek, thoughts on playing a new species, and what it was like working with Patrick Stewart, Jeri Ryan, and Jonathan Frakes. We also discuss the controversy surrounding “Stardust City Rag.”
