Given the events of “Picard” and the delays of the writer’s strike, it’s considerably less likely we’ll get to see our old Q up to no good. Natasha has the smarmy attitude expected from a Q, so why not? Certainly welcome to a relative unknown in the role if they can pull it off, but she gets my vote.
She has always been terrific. I remember her back from before she was well-known and was mostly doing comedy like Mitchell and Webb, Look Around You and Green Wing (which also had Doctor Who’s Missy, Michelle Gomez) and even then she really stuck out. She has a great combination of “fuck all of you,” “I couldn’t care less about any of this” and “you make me laugh, I’ll kill you last” attitude that I could totally see from a Q.
