On Thursday Michelle told CBS Mornings that she’s pumped about her return to the Star Trek franchise. 

She looked back on her time with the series, sharing, ‘It started in 2016, when I joined the Star Trek family, when we made Discovery.

‘I came on as Captain Philippa Georgiou, the much-loved, kind, benevolent, but strong captain to my number one, Sonequa Martin-Green.’

Discovery started with Philippa as the captain of the USS Shenzhou, but her character died in battle before returning in the Mirror Universe as the ruthless emperor of the Terran Empire.

Star Trek: Section 31 is directed by Olatunde Osunsanmi and written by Craig Sweeny for Paramount+ and will be the first TV film in the Star Trek franchise.

Referring to her character, who was killed off in episode two of the sci-fi drama, the Malaysian entertainer added, ‘This time as Philippa Georgiou, she’s an inventor. She’s literally a lethal, walking diva.’

While on Thursday’s show, speaking to host Gayle King, Yeoh reacted to her movie Wicked being nominated for a whopping 10 Oscars.

She was giddy, and yelped when it was shared that co-star Ariana Grande has been nominated in the Best Supporting Actress category.

Additionally, Cynthia Erivo is hoping to take home the gong for Best Actress in a Leading Role, for her portrayal of Elphaba, the Wicked Witch of the West.

Ariana earned her first ever Oscars nod for her role as Glinda the Good Witch in the beloved musical.

The annual ceremony will see Wicked, Dune: Part Two, Emilia Perez, Anora, The Brutalist, A Complete Unknown, Conclave, I’m Still Here, Nickel Boys and The Substance battle it out for Best Picture.

Meanwhile, foreign-language film I’m Still Here received a surprising nomination while other popular films, such as Sing Sing and A Real Pain were left out of the race.
