Roxann Dawson (B’Elanna) passed on directing new Star Trek but has returned to science fiction with Foundation - eviltoast

Interesting extract from a longer /Film interview with in-demand director Roxann Dawson.

I appreciate how she speaks with respect for the shows of the new era.

    Then don’t. Not everything needs to be adapted and watered down, sometimes stories just belong in their original medium.

      If u ever read Asimov’s works, you would say something like “not everyone should be a writer”

        I’ve read all five of the original Foundation books and most of the Robot series and Edge of Eternity. Why do you think I haven’t read him?

          I do not think that you haven’t reed his books. I just meant that Asimov’s way of describing thing and writing stories stands off and it might feel hard to read.
