Brannon Braga is talking up ENTERPRISE in an interview in the new issue of STAR TREK: COMMUNICATOR. Of course, he's got a few things to say for hint-rabid TREK fans.
"We thought about revealing [Future Guy] in the [first-season] finale, but it just seemed too soon and it didn't service the story. For all we know, he'll be revealed the next time we do a Temporal Cold War story," Braga said, about the series' main villain. He also revealed, unlike past TREK shows, the main arc of the Temporal Cold War, the main thread story of the series, has already been sketched out. He also revealed the series will see the Federation founded.
"We've mapped out a great deal of the arc, and want to make sure that every time we do it, you learn something very tantalizing," Braga said. "Because so much of the show's concept is rooted in STAR TREK's history, we thought it would add a little spice to create a villain who doesn't want to see humans succeed in space. It was just too cool a premise to pass up."
He also made clear, despite fans love Romulans, they may never show up on ENTERPRISE.
"We have major continuity issues with them," Braga said. "We would very much like to do Romulans, but a) we don't know quite how yet, staying consistent with the original series, and b) since the new movie deals with Romulans, we want to give them some breathing room. We'll do them eventually, but not right away."
