Varel – Susanna Thompson
Leave it to Susanna Thompson to leave a lasting, yet controversial, appearance on Star Trek: Deep Space Nine. What for? Her character, Varel, was a participant in one of TV’s first ever same-sex kisses in the United States of America. Real controversial, eh?
Most recently Thompson starred as Moira Queen on Arrow and as Carolyn Preston on Timeless. Thompson also appeared on Legends of Tomorrow in 2017 as Wellenreiter’s A.I..
Kes – Jennifer Lien
From 1995 to 1997, Kes appeared on Star Trek: Voyager. She played an Ocampan, which is a species that only lives for 8 to 9 years – Kes joins the starship’s crew after it has been stranded 70,000 light-years from Earth.
However Jennifer Lien retired in 2002 and has been off the grid since. She is married to the writer and filmmaker Phil Hwang and together they have a son.
