Academy Award winner Michelle Yeoh steps back into the Star Trek universe as she takes on the role of Emperor Georgiou in the new Paramount+ film "Star Trek: Section 31."

Michelle Yeoh reprises her role as Emperor Philippa Georgiou, who was first introduced in "Star Trek: Discovery," as she joins a secret division of Starfleet.

According to the reports, the movie is a spinoff of the series Star Trek: Discovery, but designed to exploit the talents of Michelle Yeoh.

Michelle Yeoh and Sonequa Martin-Green took to the red carpet Wednesday to celebrate the premiere of "Star Trek: Section 31," which lands Friday on Paramount+.

With the relaunch of Star Trek on TV with Discovery, Section 31 has become a mainstay of "modern Trek." And now with Star Trek: Section 31, it's fully in the spotlight, with Michelle Yeoh in the captain's seat for a concept that was originally developed as a streaming show, before being repurposed into a streaming movie.

Michelle Yeoh is fun to watch in "Star Trek's" first TV movie, but the series-turned-film is a tonal mish-mash that feels stranded on the verge of something that will never come.

If the critics are to be believed, the latest addition to the Trek canon — a streaming film called Star Trek: Section 31starring Oscar winner Michelle Yeoh — may represent the absolute nadir of those decades of stories.
