Gene Roddenberry\'s vision of the future was one of utopian\\nideals, but over time the stories stretched the boundaries of that\\nidealism and introduced more conflict into a world where everyone\\nseemed to get along. Threats like the Dominion and the Borg\\nchallenged our heroes, and often in surprising ways. Voyager\\ngrappled with the idea the that not all Borg are bad\\u2014or at least\\ndeserve a second chance\\u2014while DS9 exposed the shadowy world of\\nSection 31.

\\n

We\'ll soon be lurking further into those shadows in Star Trek:\\nRenegades, the independent film directed by Tim Russ that stars\\nmany familiar faces from Treks past. Renegades also brings a\\nVoyager twist along with it.

\\n

In this episode of Continuing Mission we\'re joined by Manu\\nIntiraymi, who fans know as the young Brunali and former Borg drone\\nIcheb on Star Trek: Voyager. Manu talks to us about reprising the\\nrole of Icheb in Renegades, as well as how he got the role on\\nVoyager, what it was like working on the set, how he got into\\nacting, and what he has in store for fans in the near future.
