Star Trek: Deep Space Nine ended in 1999 after 7 seasons but didn't jump into feature films like The Next Generation. Here's why.

There is palpable fan interest in Star Trek: Deep Space Nine getting a revival of some sort

They mentioned Avery's willingness as an impediment but even if he's onboard I don't see it without René and Aron, among other reasons.

Nog I think is the easiest recast. It could be explained just that the character aged. Odo would be harder. He could be a CGI character with a voice actor but that doesn't sound good. It could be a plot point that both characters are killed prior to the beginning of the story and the story involves resolving the mystery of what happened and why.

All and all I think it's unlikely we'll see any kind of continuation of DS9, which is unfortunate because it's my favorite series.

@Salamendacious @Evilcoleslaw In Ira Steven Behr's doc "What we left behind", he get the original writers brainstorm a new season of DS9 and they promptly kill Nog in the first episode.

Yeah that's always a potential thing they could continue from, or scrap at will. (I watched that again just this weekend lol)

I remember that. He came out of the wormhole, making a warning, and his ship exploded if I remember right.
