Section 31 director Olatunde Osunsanmi explains how Michelle Yeoh inspired the visual design of the upcoming television movie.

Section 31 is Michelle Yeoh. Everything else within the first Trek film of the Paramount+ era orbits around her. The visuals, the camera work, the colors of the costumes, the inclusion of certain spaceships are all inspired by Emperor Philippa Georgiou Augustus Iaponius Centarius (or just Philippa for short),

Star Trek has had a lot of firsts since it first debuted in 1966, but it took until 1995 for them to actually start happening. That's when Kate Mulgrew took on the role as Captain Kathryn Janeway, becoming the first woman to helm the bridge of a starshipin the franchise.

Section 31 arrives on the 2025 movies schedule and reunites fans who have a Paramount+ subscription with Michelle Yeoh’s Philippa Georgiou, the former leader of the Terran Empire in the Mirror Universe.
