We chat with StarTrekDiscovery's iamdavidajala about his season 4 memories, Book's relationship with Michael, and hints about season 5 of the StarTrek series:
Cleveland Booker went on a quest for vengeance in Star Trek: Discovery season 4. The Paramount+ original series is now available in a four-disc collection from CBS Home Entertainment.
David Ajala: It was a challenging season to shoot because we were shooting in the middle of a pandemic. I've never seen a group of individuals come together so well [to] support each other. I think my favorite moments came from just seeing the kindness of people. People supporting each other, crew and cast, as we're going through this pandemic. My favorite moments are the moments of just the care that people showed each other, absolutely.
Book's relationship with Michael is the heart of the show. What is working with Sonequa like as a scene partner and a romantic partner? Because I know she went through a terrible tragedy losing both her parents shooting season 4. You also had so many great scenes with Shawn Doyle as Dr. Ruon Tarka in season 4. And there was an odd couple brotherhood between you guys that I really enjoyed. Tell me about working with him.
David Ajala: Yeah, it's understandable. I'm not saying that their way of thinking is right or wrong. But what I will say, speaking on behalf of the two characters going through these very specific journeys of grief and loss, pain can be a great motivator. It can also be very destructive. And I think that's the fine line that we saw between these two characters, along their individual journeys and the collateral damage caused by the decisions that they made.
David Ajala: Great question. I think Cleveland Booker is a man of the people. And he naturally is someone who's on this planet who understands that his calling is to serve. And I think he can still achieve that without having to align himself with Starfleet or align himself with their specific protocols. So it's been a collaboration.
