Agent: Revelation is a new sci-fi film about aliens and super-soldiers, and was released yesterday on Digital. Starring in the movie is Michael Dorn, an actor best known for his legendary portrayal of Worf in Star Trek: The Next Generation.

While the actor has returned to the role in numerous Star Trek projects, the character of Worf has yet to be seen on Picard, the current series on CBS All Access. Rumors persisted for some time that there were plans to include him, but when we spoke with Dorn, he made it clear that he had never heard from the network at all.

Dorn seemed hesitant about returning for the role in Picard, but he isn't done with the character altogether. He has written and proposed a project called The Chronicles of Worf and has hopes that it could wind up as a potential companion piece to Stewart's Picard.

"I'm still hoping for Star Trek: The Worf Chronicles. A few years ago, I wrote a script, still sitting right over there about the Worf Chronicles, a show or a spinoff that is about Worf. And hopefully, people will talk to other people and get to CBS All Access, and maybe they'll do something about it someday.

I wrote this probably 10 or 12 years ago. And we got a lot of interest at one point, and then it waned, and then we got another lot of interest, and then it waned again. So, I haven't done much rewriting. It's been sitting there, and I think it's a great idea.

Instead of Starfleet looking at the Klingon empire, we are in the Klingon Empire looking at Starfleet. As you know, Klingons are very Shakespearian, very big. There are coups, and assassinations, and political intrigue, and all that stuff. And a lot of slicing and killing."

Hear all of this and more in the below clip from our chat with Dorn, and be sure to leave your thoughts in the usual spot.
