Orange Is the New Black actress and former Star Trek: Voyager actress Kate Mulgrew has revealed she'd be happy to suit up and reprise her role as Captain Kathryn Janeway once again as the Star Trek franchise continues to expand.

Mulgrew played Captain Janeway in the Star Trek: Voyager TV series between 1995 and 2001, and whilst attending the Star Trek: Destination convention in Birmingham recently, she weighed in on whether she'd be up for returning to the role.

And the good news is she's game – and even hinted at a possible Star Trek crossover movie featuring herself, The Original Series's William Shatner and The Next Generation's Sir Patrick Stewart.

"Shatner, Stewart and myself in some sort of movie – I'd love to do that," Mulgrew replied when a fan asked if she'd ever suit up again (Comicbook.com). "So the answer is yes."

Alright, so while a feature-length movie may be unlikely to happen, we'll also happily take the possibility of a cameo or two – especially considering Stewart is currently returning to the franchise with a Jean-Luc Picard centric show where he'll reprise his iconic role.

And while Shatner has completely ruled out a leading role in any upcoming Star Trek TV series, he has suggested he'd be interested in a smaller appearance, as long as all the circumstances were right.

So the potential is there, and Star Trek producer Alex Kurtzman has recently shared that fans will "be hearing a lot about" brand new TV projects in the close future.

Just don't expect a crossover between Star Trek: Discovery and the Picard show.

Star Trek: Discovery airs on CBS All Access in the US and Netflix internationally, including the UK.
