As well as playing Tess in the first Last of Us game, Wersching was also known for her roles as Renee Walker in 24, and Borg Queen in Star Trek: Picard.

Nearly the entire cast of The Next Generation returns for the final season of Picard and it looks like every single one of them appears in the final trailer. Also appearing: so many fights in space with spaceships, Seven of Nine, and actor Ed Speleers, who is apparently playing a friend of Beverly Crusher’s. The final season starts airing February 16 on Paramount Plus.
