With the first season of ENTERPRISE coming to an end tonight, creators Rick Berman and Brannon Braga are talking about their famous working relationship, and launching the fifth STAR TREK series, and the upcoming STAR TREK: NEMESIS.
"I think we are in extraordinary shape," Berman said in an interview with TV GUIDE. "ENTERPRISE is right on target and a strong success for UPN, and there is great electricity about the movie. The footage - the dailies - look more like a Ridley Scott film or a John Woo film than a classic TREK movie. I think - contrary to rumors - that this is very, very likely not going to be the last movie. If this one does well as I believe it will, it will be a mere matter of weeks - make that days - before Paramount comes to me and says 'So, when are we going to get to work on number 11 ?'"
Braga, for his part, talked about how he and Berman are more into ENTERPRISE than they have been on the other shows for some time now.
"I think I speak for us when I say that we have more of a passion for this show than for the others," Braga said. "I'm always looking for ways to turn a story on its ear, to shake up the franchise. I have been accused of being iconoclastic, of not respecting the franchise, but nothing could be further from the truth. I don't think a week, even a day, goes by when we don't stop and say we have to keep in mind what STAR TREK is all about and not to stray too far."
