A sequel film to Star Trek: Enterprise is the best way to pay respects

As a gamer who has spent countless hours navigating the vast expanse of the Star Trek universe, I must say that Star Trek: Enterprise holds a special place in my heart. It was like stepping onto the bridge of the original Enterprise for the very first time, only to find myself on a brand new vessel with an entirely fresh crew.


Regarding the TV series that received the most criticism from viewers despite being least deserving, it’s likely Star Trek: Enterprise. This series was a pioneer, as it introduced the earliest storyline within the Star Trek continuity. It takes place centuries before Captain Jean-Luc Picard’s time, focusing on Captain Jonathan Archer and the crew of the NX-01 Enterprise – the very first Warp 5 capable starship in Starfleet history.

Over the course of the show, we delved into the conflict between Andorians and Vulcans, and also encountered the enigmatic Xindii who held grievances against the emerging Federation. Simultaneously, an intriguing force from the future clashed in a time-twisting battle with Archer and his associates.

The performance was captivating, teeming with untapped possibilities. Just as it was set to delve into the Federation-Romulan conflict and perhaps welcome Captain Kirk’s return, the series was abruptly ended. A season brimming with anticipation and potential never came to fruition.

To put it simply, the series finale is widely considered to be one of the most disappointing in television history. Rather than concluding with a powerful, climactic storyline, William Riker and Deanna Troi instead delved into the era’s events using a holodeck simulation. This approach stripped the characters of their autonomy and any remaining mystery or excitement.

The tune was somber for a show so magnificent and underappreciated. However, optimism stirs once more as the spirit of traditional Star Trek narratives and concepts resurfaces in the modern era of the series, known as the Nu Trek Era. Jean-Luc Picard was given one last tale, while Captain Christopher Pike, who was previously missing in action, now commands his own show titled Star Trek: Strange New Worlds.

Kathryne Janeway reappeared in the series, as Star Trek: Discovery aimed to connect the dots between Enterprise and the forthcoming Strange New Worlds by delving into the same timeframe. Now, a movie is set to delve deeper into this timeline exclusively on Paramount+, titled Section 31.

Instead of continually revisiting and delving deeper into established tales, how about transforming Star Trek: Enterprise into a feature film? While Star Trek: Strange New Worlds has boosted the significance of the Enterprise series, it still may not provide enough additional weight to a franchise that is over two decades old.

Instead of forcing references and appearances, why not produce a sequel film that takes place twenty years after the events of Enterprise? In this storyline, we could unveil Jonathan “Tripp” Tucker as still alive, but now working as a secret agent for (or against) the Federation. He faked his own death to accomplish his mission. Now, 20 years later, he’s back to confront Captain Jonathan Archer, with consequences that could be beneficial or detrimental.

They might reminisce about the past two decades by using flashbacks, sharing with each other the events that transpired when one was absent. This concept is strong, but it’s not exclusive; there could be many other suitable ideas as well. Given the abundance of possibilities, why not cater to the fans and conclude Star Trek: Enterprise’s tale in a memorable way before the opportunity passes?
