Callum Keith Rennie plays Commander Rayner on the fifth season of “Star Trek: Discovery,” a complex character with deep motivations shaped by the dark events that happened before the Discovery crew jumped into the future.

Rennie speaks with Trek Untold in this exclusive interview about who the character is, how the actor joined the show, learning that this season would be the end of the series, and the difficulties he had while performing the role.

NOTE: This interview was done in conjunction with Episode 4 of Season 5 and doesn’t discuss plot elements beyond this point in the season
