Bryan Fuller posted this on Instagram as a birthday greeting to Laurence Fishburne, back on July 30.
So apparently Fuller had intended to carry over the Hannibal cast into Discovery in various parts — and this was how he'd imagined Fishburne in Klingon prosthetics. It also suggests that the much maligned Disco Klingon designs were decided upon after Fuller left as (preliminary) show runner.
ETA: Here is a rundown of the casting plans he had in mind, originally revealed on the D-con chamber podcast. I would have watched Gillian Anderson as a starship captain.
You are making some wild conflations here. Discovery didnt have the budget issues that make the TOS era Klingons more accepted, putting aside that Discovery was just a bad show to begin with so it’s easy to pile on nit picks.
So TNG's bigger budget makes it acceptable to completely disregard the existing history, legacy and visual continuity, but DSC's bigger budget doesn't?
No, TOSs smaller budget makes it more acceptable to not have been able to establish a different visual. Discoverys bigger budget, extensive use of CGI, and lack of input from Rodenberry himself, make it less excusable to ignore the history that now exists.
But I was actually taking far more issue with your insinuation that not liking discovery made you akin to MAGA assholes on Twitter.
Smaller budget than what? It's the original series.
You are intentionally missing my point. Good bye.
Hahah, trekkie drama. Everyone's so mean!
