Karim Diane was the first of the show’s core-five cadets to speak with Celia Rose Gooding at the premiere of Starfleet Academy in New York. Draped in a stunning purple ensemble from Akira, the young actor was emotionally moved on the blue carpet, realizing the magnitude of this Star Trek moment and his place in the franchise. Of his "soft-hearted" character, Jay-Den Kraag, Diane said, “Klingons are, you know, diverse people [...] So, I’m really excited to get deeper into this side of this [Klingon] culture.”
