Alice Krige didn’t perceive the Borg Queen as a villain
As a gamer who has spent countless hours immersed in the vast universe of Star Trek, I must say that Alice Krige’s portrayal of the Borg Queen was nothing short of captivating. Her performance was chilling, seductive, and enigmatic – a perfect blend of charm and menace that left me on the edge of my seat every time she appeared on screen.
Alice Krige portrayed an iconic character in Star Trek: the original Borg Queen, introduced in Star Trek: First Contact. In this role, she skillfully employed her charm to captivate Data, enticing him with the possibility of experiencing tactile sensations. However, what she truly sought were the computer codes for the Enterprise-E. To an observer, it seemed she desired Data for far more than just codes, and given our prior knowledge of the Borg and the destruction wrought by the Collective, we had no reason to trust her. Despite being a villain in the series, Alice Krige saw her character differently.
During an interview for the Star Trek All Good Things: A Next Generation Companion, Krige shared her perspective on acting. She mentioned that she cannot see any character she plays as a villain; instead, there must be some trace of kindness, however distorted it might appear.
The Borg Queen felt she was doing everyone a big favor. There’s no way I can perceive anyone I play as a villain. They have aspects of their personality that are problematic for other people, but I can’t have had feelings about anyone I play. Certainly the Borg Queen thought she was offering a kind of salvation to any being she assimilated.
It’s quite unusual to portray the Borg Queen in this manner, given her role in destroying countless lives across various species. The Borg were known for taking what they desired and discarding the rest, making it challenging to perceive their actions as a form of redemption or salvation.
Krige’s depiction of the Queen exuded an eerily composed demeanor. Reflecting upon her insights on the character now, it appears as if the Queen might have been graciously forgiving rather than intentionally malicious. However, this devotee remains unconvinced; they view the Queen as nothing less than a villain.
