Ronny Cox Interview for TNG Blu-ray Docs

We’re thrilled to reveal that actor Ronny Cox – famous for his portrayal of Captain Edward Jellico in the Star Trek: The Next Generation Season Six two-parter “Chain of Command” – will be featured in upcoming bonus features on the TNG Blu-ray releases. Cox’s Jellico famously took command of the Enterprise during Captain Picard’s covert mission to Celtris III in the Cardassian-themed double episode.

The news was confirmed by Roger Lay, Jr. via twitter today. Roger also tweeted a great photo showing Ronny in front of the cameras being interviewed.

A release of “Chain of Command” may be some time away, but Roger and Robert Meyer Burnett have made it clear that they are continuing to make every effort to interview guest actors such as Ronny whenever their schedules permit. Cox was not featured on the DVD release of Next Gen in 2002, so it will be a pleasure to hear his thoughts as part of the new Blu-ray documentaries!
