The article reveals details about Noah Hawley's cancelled Star Trek film, which would have subtly connected to the beloved Next Generation character, Data. Hawley's vision for the film was a more grounded, character-driven story focusing on a deadly virus that erased people's memories, forcing the crew to confront their identities. The connection to Data would have been through an android character who was grappling with the concept of his own "humanity" and memories, echoing Data's journey. Hawley suggests his film was put on hold due to a change in studio priorities following the success of Top Gun: Maverick, with Paramount opting for a more action-oriented Star Trek approach.
