5. Michelle Hurd and David Ajala
Michelle Hurd of Star Trek: Picard and Discovery's own Book himself, David Ajala, were also on hand to support the premiere of Starfleet Academy. While Hurd's character, Raffi, was an integral part of all three seasons of Picard, she took a backseat during the show's final episodes as The Next Generation's core-seven reunited and saved the day aboard the nostalgic bridge of the USS Enterprise-D.
Hurd did reveal on the blue carpet, though, that she would have told her younger self that Star Trek is “something that you really need in your life.” And, as fans, we're lucky to have Raffi. Meanwhile, Ajala told host Celia Rose Gooding that he would have told his younger self (in preparing to join the Trek franchise) to "be courageous, be bold, be kind — take risks — and be curious without judgement."
