Spoilers Kelvin Timeline Character appearances in SNW?

So been rewatching the Kelvin films and It made me think I would love to see the "Prime" counterpart to certain characters appear in some shape or form on SNW (I.E. Richard Robau, George Kirk, Winona Kirk, Richard Barnett. Keenser.)
The one I kinda wanna see is the Prime counterpart to Alexander Marcus cause I have always been fascinated by his character arc. Like was he always a member of Section 31 before the Kelvin was destroyed or was that a by product of the Kelvin getting whacked.?
Are there any Kelvin characters you would like to see make their Prime universe debut?
 
Robau for sure.

Possibly George and Winonna Kirk.

Marcus too. I think the Kelvin debacle and Narada attack caused his use of Section 31.
 
Faran Tahir has said he’d love to play Robau again.

In my head canon he is the President of the Federation as of SNW.

Marcus too. I think the Kelvin debacle and Narada attack caused his use of Section 31.

Yeah, I was thinking the same thing.

Ever since STID when Carol said something along the lines of "whatever happened to the man who raised me". Implying that Marcus was a good and decent man until something tipped him over the edge.

That said...speaking of headcanon, IMHO a scene very much like this one happened, offscreen, soon after the end of STID.

FWIW. ;)

I've said it before (and I seriously doubt it would would ever happen) - but IMO it would be great if they could get (soon to be in March), 93 year old William Shatner to portray 'George Kirk' on an episode of Strange New Worlds.:angel:
 
Perhaps he, like grandson James, wasn't interested in promotion if it took him away from the place he could do the most good/felt he belonged. For Ti, I imagine it could have been something less than a captaincy.
 
Scotty needs a Keenser. Also kinda curious about Gaila, but SNW has made it pretty clear Orions aren't welcome in Starfleet in their version of the 2250's.

As for Robau, Tahir is back as Robau in the forthcoming deeply cursed and extremely scammy Axanar fanfilm, which backed by a genuine cult and features a cameo by their leader as a Starfleet Admiral.

I thought Tahir in Axanar was a pipe dream of Mr. Peters that never occurred. Then again, I'm not paying as much attention to that stupid thing as I used to.

His photo on set in uniform was posted by the American Magical Mystery School leader, along with himself in Tony Todd's several-sizes-too-big old outfit.

I'm hoping Tahir has no clue what he's involved in, because between seeing where the money actually went and the cult involvement, it's not a good look.

That's sad to hear. I hate cults.

Just because Orions aren’t welcome in 2250s Starfleet in the Prime timeline, doesn’t mean Gaila isn’t around. It would be interesting to see who snatched her up and made use of her computer technician skills. And how Gaila’s life is completely different when she doesn’t enter the Academy and meet Uhura and Kirk there.

Jaylah would be interesting to meet. Yes, Jaylah and her family were shot down and she lived on Altimid for years as an orphan in the Kelvin timeline, but there no indication that happened in the Prime timeline. Or that it won't happen to them after an encounter with the Enterprise.

Thomas and Rima Harewood would also be interesting to meet. What becomes of them when they don't meet Khan and don't get a cure for their daughter?

Minor characters of Starfleet (Olson, Darwin, Froman, 0718, Captain Frank Abbot, Admiral Barnett, Commodore Paris). Even an offhand reference to them would be enough.
 
Kelvin timeline Scotty was 95% comedy relief, something that his TOS counterpart really wasn’t (and hopefully his SNW counterpart won’t be, either.) Keenser was just there as a foil for Scotty, and served no useful purpose other than that. The dude didn’t even talk.
