Some great news earlier today for fans looking for an update on how things are looking with Michelle Yeoh's return as Philippa Georgiou for the special original movie event Star Trek: Section 31. Earlier today, Paramount+ posted an image of Yeoh behind a clapperboard to announce that production was officially underway in Toronto. "I just came back from Toronto, and what does that tell you? We are definitely prepping. We are definitely going full steam ahead. And thank you. 'Section 31' is very special to me, and I'm so happy we're doing it," Yeoh shared with Collider during an interview in support of Yeoh's Netflix series, The Brothers Sun back in December 2023. Produced by CBS Studios, the story finds Yeoh's Georgiou joining a secret division of Starfleet tasked with protecting the United Federation of Planets – and facing the sins of her past. But that's not all, because Yeoh is set to be joined by Omari Hardwick (Power), Kacey Rohl (Hannibal), Sam Richardson (Ted Lasso), Sven Ruygrok (One Piece), Robert Kazinsky (Pacific Rim), Humberly Gonzalez (Ginny & Georgia), and James Hiroyuki Liao (Barry).
