Star Trek: Strange New Worlds showrunner Akiva Goldsman lends some insight as to why Star Trek: Picard season 3 featured the body of Captain James T. Kirk as an Easter egg. Kirk died in the 1994 feature film Star Trek Generations, and he was buried on the planet Veridian III at the end of the film. Therefore, it was a shock when Picard season 3 revealed the Captain's corpse is stored in Section 31's top-secret Daystrom Station facility.
SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT In an interview with SFX Magazine as reported by SlashFilm, Akiva Goldsman was asked about whether the Star Trek franchise has plans to use digital technology to deep fake legacy characters the way franchises like Star Wars have. Goldsman indicated he's not against the idea, but Star Trek has "no plans" in place to do so.
"My friend Terry Matalas is not alone in feeling frustrated with Kirk's death in canon. It's why he put his body at Daystrom Station, right?" What Does Kirk's Body In Picard Season 3 Mean For Star Trek? Evidently, Captain Kirk's body in Star Trek: Picard season 3 is just one of numerous Easter eggs for longtime fans. Picard's showrunner Terry Matalas and his creative team stocked Daystrom Station's secret vaults with tons of shout-outs to Star Trek history like the Genesis Device from Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan and genetically modified Tribbles.
If the idea of using digital technology to resurrect William Shatner's Captain Kirk happens, Kirk's body in Daystrom Station might be the first step toward retconning his death. Kirk's corpse is apparently being stored by Section 31 under a program called 'Project Phoenix,' and in the future, Star Trek may indeed use deep fake technology to resurrect the legendary Captain.
