Despite winning an Oscar for Everything Everywhere All at Once, Michelle Yeoh is still committed to Star Trek: Section 31, but why? Yeoh isn't the first Star Trek to win an Academy Award, as Whoopi Goldberg won the Best Supporting Actress Oscar for her role in Ghost in 1991. Despite this, Goldberg continued to appear in episodes of Star Trek: The Next Generation until her final appearance in the 1993 episode, "Suspicions." Whoopi Goldberg was a big fan of Star Trek, having been inspired by Nichelle Nichols as Lt. Nyota Uhura, which is why she was so keen to be involved.
