Actress Kate Mulgrew - has been playing Captain Kathryn Janeway for six seasons now on the TV series Star Trek Voyager. Now she is participating with most of her fellow cast members in doing the voice of her character in the upcoming Activision and Raven Software game Star Trek Voyager: Elite Force.At E3 today (May 12, 2000), Ms. Mulgrew - signed autographs and chatted with expo attendees at the Activision booth. Afterwards, she sat down and spoke briefly to Stomped - @ E3 about her work on the game.
Stomped - Is today the first time you have seen the game in action?
Mulgrew - This is the first time, yes.
Stomped - What did you think?
Mulgrew - I think it's splendid. I think it really does great justice not only to Voyager but to Star Trek. It is exactly thematically correct.
Stomped - You are also doing the voice of your character in the game. What is it like doing the voice as opposed to playing your character on the stage?
Mulgrew - Strangely enough, it's very liberating. I don't have the camera to worry about, so there is none of that. It's very relaxing and a lot of fun.
Stomped - Is this a game that you would buy for yourself or your children?
Mulgrew - It's a game that I would strongly urge my children and all of their friends to buy.
Stomped - Is it possible that you might set this game up at the Paramount lot and play a multiplayer game with your fellow cast members?
Mulgrew - (laughs) I don't know. Possible but improbable.
Stomped - Next year is your final year on Voyager. What are your feelings about that?
Mulgrew - It’s sad. There is a great poignancy to it. I've been with these people for six years, and finally, ultimately, of course, it will be seven. There is a heartbreaking quotient to it. But all good things must come to an end, and it's time.
Stomped - Some Star Trek actors have worried about being typecast into their roles after they leave the shows. What are your feelings about that?
Mulgrew - I don't worry about that. I think playing Kathryn Janeway can only enhance my career which was in place long before I had this job.
