Wrapping up the night's festivites, Sandro Rosta and Zoe Steiner joined Celia Rose Gooding on the blue carpet. Steiner portrays the intriguing Betazoid, Tarima Sadal, who also exhibits powers much like the Black Canary character from DC Comics.

“I can’t say too much, and we haven't seen too much,” Steiner revealed, so we didn't get any juicy spoilers from her. However, Steiner did say that Tarima is a “deep-feeler,” and she’s worried about her emotions harming others. The character also “craves” Caleb Mir because he represents freedom to the Betazoid.

Rosta is the lead cadet and appears to be the show's main protagonist within the young ensemble of talent; Caleb's past clearly connects to the villainous Nus Braka and chancellor Nahla Ake. “He is bringing a level of ‘I don’t care’ to the Academy [...] I think it’s a valuable asset,” Rosta explained, which can be observed in the trailers for the upcoming streaming series — after he is found by Ake and brought to Starfleet.
