There is a weird thing that i think was hinted upon in a ds9 interview that for some reason “they” do not like to have star trek fans working on the set and those that where where supposed to act low profile about it.

I can kinda see how it can be both distracting to get work done and irritating or to have crew argue canon all the time (Henry Cavill in the wincher)

But i also can’t not see how political this might all be.

    the wincher

    Henry Cavill plays a tow truck driver who repossesses the realms most powerful monsters cars.

    I think arguing canon on set is one thing, I think enjoying the work and understanding it from the start is another.

    He wasn't into Star Trek, he said he was after being paid to be into it. Thats it - and honestly I don't believe he liked it in his rewatch either - and that is the issue. He wasn't interested in making a Star Trek movie. He got brought on because "BIG NAME MEAN BIG $$$" and not because it would be good for Star Trek. imo of course.
