Beam Me Up, Scotty! The Hottest Women Who Have Appeared On Star Trek

Kate Mulgrew as Kathryn Janeway

The original role of Kathryn Janeway went to actress Genevieve Bujold. Genevieve Bujold was the first pick, until the producers believed she did not have that certain onscreen magic to connect with the fans. The producers sought out and found Kate Mulgrew, and the magic was instant for the Voyager fleet.

Captain Kathryn Janeway was the Starfleet officer in Star Trek: Voyager. She took pride in the job and was quoted as saying, “There are three things to remember about being a starship captain: keep your shirt tucked in, go down with the ship, and never abandon a member of your crew.”
