Jason Isaacs has hinted at the possibility of returning to Star Trek: Discovery, but perhaps not as exactly the same character. Isaacs played Captain Gabriel Lorca in the show’s first season. Or more specifically, “Mirror Lorca,” a version of the Captain from a Mirror Universe who assumed his place in the Prime Universe.
The fate of the “Prime” Lorca is unknown, which leaves the possibility that he could be introduced in a future episode. When asked about that, here’s what Isaacs told the Empire Film Podcast:
Where is Prime Lorca? Well, I admit that we talk. It’s not like when Mirror Lorca bit the bullet there wasn’t a clamouring for Prime Lorca, but the thing is, it has got to be a great story. Pike is already there! We know what he is like. We have seen him and he’s great. We don’t know who Prime Lorca is.
