‘Star Trek: Picard’ Episode 7 Cast: Kestra & Other Special Guests

The seventh episode of Star Trek: Picard was perhaps one of the most touching of the series. We finally got to see Picard reunited with Troi and Riker after all these years, and the reunion was perfection. Riker and Troi have a perfect life. Here’s a look at the featured cast in Episode 7, “Nepenthe.”

Old Favorites Returned, Along with New Cast

CBS

Marina Sirtis was back, reviving her role as Deanna Troi. And she was absolutely perfect in that role.

‌

Jonathan Frakes is back as Riker and he stepped into his role beautifully.

‌

Lulu Wilson may have stolen the show as Riker and Troy’s daughter Kestra. Kestra was the name of Troi’s sister who died. She was Deanna’s older sister and she died shortly after Dianna’s birth. Dianna’s daughter actually looks a lot like her.

Kay Bess is the voice of the La Sirena computer. She’s done voices for many shows including The Loud House, Stuck in the Middle, Women Behind Bars, Mass Effect: Andromeda, and more.

Star Trek: Picard has done a great job of bringing in a variety of actors, including actors who were known and beloved from the original The Next Generation series. The actors who appeared in the latest episode of Picard did a phenomenal job continuing the story.
