    Avery Brooks will probably never agree to play Sisko again. But Samuel L. Jackson might.

    It could happen. IT COULD HAPPEN!

          I mean, much as I’d like Sisko to come back in anything regarding DS9, that Brooks doesn’t want to do it is actually convenient for the story: Sisko’s in the Celestial Temple with the Prophets, let him stay there. LD has shown we can have a great DS9 episode without him.

          It’s a shame he’s not interested, but there are plenty of BIPOC actors who’d love to have a chance at being in Trek.

            Sure, you could definitely do a DS9 reunion like the TNG reunion on Picard without Sisko (and Nog, unfortunately)… but would people really want to see that?

            I can definitely buy Sisko as a king under the mountain figure, believed by the Bajorans to return in their hour of greatest need, like Arthur for the British.

          I think I watched that one. Is it the one where he seems a little weird and plays the piano? Do you remember if he gave a reason to not want to do more DS9?

            I don’t remember, no. But yes, that’s the documentary. They also come up with a hypothetical first episode of a series taking place 20 years later.
