Avery Brooks will probably never agree to play Sisko again. But Samuel L. Jackson might.
It could happen. IT COULD HAPPEN!
Why wouldn't Brooks?
He seems totally disinterested if the DS9 documentary was anything to go on.
I mean, much as I'd like Sisko to come back in anything regarding DS9, that Brooks doesn't want to do it is actually convenient for the story: Sisko's in the Celestial Temple with the Prophets, let him stay there. LD has shown we can have a great DS9 episode without him.
It's a shame he's not interested, but there are plenty of BIPOC actors who'd love to have a chance at being in Trek.
Sure, you could definitely do a DS9 reunion like the TNG reunion on Picard without Sisko (and Nog, unfortunately)... but would people really want to see that?
Also without Odo, similarly unfortunately. And yes, I would. Hopefully better than on S3 PIC though... eesh
Oh yes, I forgot about Rene Auberjonois.
I can definitely buy Sisko as a king under the mountain figure, believed by the Bajorans to return in their hour of greatest need, like Arthur for the British.
I think I watched that one. Is it the one where he seems a little weird and plays the piano? Do you remember if he gave a reason to not want to do more DS9?
I don't remember, no. But yes, that's the documentary. They also come up with a hypothetical first episode of a series taking place 20 years later.
