Manu Intiraymi on Icheb
and Renegades.
Gene Roddenberry's vision of the future was one of utopian
ideals, but over time the stories stretched the boundaries of that
idealism and introduced more conflict into a world where everyone
seemed to get along. Threats like the Dominion and the Borg
challenged our heroes, and often in surprising ways. Voyager
grappled with the idea the that not all Borg are bad—or at least
deserve a second chance—while DS9 exposed the shadowy world of
Section 31.
We'll soon be lurking further into those shadows in Star Trek:
Renegades, the independent film directed by Tim Russ that stars
many familiar faces from Treks past. Renegades also brings a
Voyager twist along with it.
In this episode of Continuing Mission we're joined by Manu
Intiraymi, who fans know as the young Brunali and former Borg drone
Icheb on Star Trek: Voyager. Manu talks to us about reprising the
role of Icheb in Renegades, as well as how he got the role on
Voyager, what it was like working on the set, how he got into
acting, and what he has in store for fans in the near future.
