This week brings us to the third episode of Star Trek: Picard, and we’ve got your next round of new photos from “The End is the Beginning” today — which introduces us to the next major cast member in the series, Santiago Cabrera as Captain Cris Rios, as well as reunites us with legacy guest star Jonathan Del Arco as Hugh.
Hugh, now much more human than the last time we encountered him back in “Descent, Part II,” looks to be spending his time working with Soji Asha (Isa Briones) aboard The Artifact — that is, the Romulan-managed Borg cube.
In addition to all these photos, which shows the crew of the starship La Sirena coming together for their upcoming adventure, we also get a look into the past as a flashback scene between Picard (Patrick Stewart) and Raffi Musiker (Michelle Hurd) gives us our first good look at the mid-2380’s-style Starfleet uniform worn in the early years after Star Trek: Nemesis.
CBS has also released a new teaser video introducing the series’ cast — including Elnor (Evan Evagora), who arrives next week — in this video which features some new footage from the next few episodes of Star Trek: Picard. (International link)
Finally, if you didn’t catch it at the end of “Maps and Legends,” here’s the preview for this coming week’s episode.
THE END IS THE BEGINNING — Completely unaware of her special nature, Soji continues her work and captures the attention of the Borg cube research project’s executive director. After rehashing past events with a reluctant Raffi, Picard seeks others willing to join his search for Bruce Maddox, including pilot and former Starfleet officer Cristóbal Rios (Santiago Cabrera).
