Star Trek has introduced seven amazing series-leading captains in its nearly 60-year history. While most Star Trek shows feature ensemble casts rather than focusing on one singular character, Star Trek’s various captains often take center stage. When Captain James T. Kirk (William Shatner) set out to explore strange new worlds in Star Trek: The Original Series, he laid the groundwork for every starship captain who would follow him. Captain Jean-Luc Picard (Patrick Stewart) of Star Trek: The Next Generation was a very different kind of captain from Kirk, but he became just as beloved.
