Star Trek: Patrick Stewart Book Tour Includes Burton, Goldberg & More
Sir Patrick Stewart invited some friends to join his "Making It So" book tour, including Star Trek co-stars Whoopi Goldberg & LeVar Burton.
The former captain of the U.S.S. Enterprise-D is not alone on his latest journey: promoting his memoir Making It So. Sir Patrick Stewart is sharing his life on the stage and screen, which includes his most recent run reprising his signature role as Jean-Luc Picard in the Paramount+ spinoff Star Trek: Picard. The British actor built not only an enduring legacy for those fortunate enough to experience his stage work as an alum of the Royal Shakespeare Theater but also built two signature roles not only with Star Trek starting from his time in 1987's The Next Generation but also created another legacy as the X-Men franchise's Professor Charles Xavier. He recently reprised that role in 2022's Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness in an alternate universe (not the one created by Fox). Stewart announced his moderators for his tour that starts in New York's Symphony Space on October 2nd in The View host Whoopi Goldberg, who's played Guinan since TNG reprising her role in Picard season two.
