-: Hi there!
I'm Sonequa Martin-Green and I play Michael Burnham.
My very first point of contact with "Star Trek"
was as a child my parents used to watch it
and I never really sat down and paid much attention.
But it was on the TV
and it became this sort of distant relative.
I would run back and forth in front of the TV
and I'd go, "Oh, Star Trek's on!
"Oh, Star Trek's on!"
(intense music)
14 00:00:33,519 --> 00:00:36,019
Ready.
The last ticket that I purchased
was for a flight,
I think.
I fly all the time.
Probably from Toronto to L.A.
Oh my goodness!
Between Lebron James and Michael Jordan!
We talking GOAT right now.
Well of course MJ is the GOAT.
Greatest of all time.
But ya know, Lebron is my friend.
(laughing)
So that's tough.
That's a tough one.
(laughing)
Oh, okay, so between O.G. Lion King and new Lion King.
I mean, you know, I gotta go old school
and go with O.G. Lion King,
'cause come on!
That's my favorite Disney movie of all time.
Means so much to me.
My phone's background image right now is my husband.
It's actually a photo of my husband and my son together.
But the frame is mostly my husband.
If I had to face down zombies or aliens,
you know what?
I'm gonna actually choose zombies.
Because I think they're a little bit easier.
And I know a little something about this.
(chuckling)
Because you know they don't really,
they don't have intelligence.
They don't have sentience, really.
And so you can just
(rhythmically clicking teeth)
Right?
But them aliens they might get you.
'Cause they're probably gonna be smarter than you.
So the last album,
the literal last album
that I saved onto my phone from Apple Music
was actually the original Lion King soundtrack.
Because we just introduced it to my son.
So now he wants to hear it all the time.
And so I just saved it.
(laughing)
Catch up on "Star Trek: Discovery"
if you haven't already.
And watch season three.
