Jack Quaid from Star Trek Set to Shine in Two Exciting New Movies

Jack Quaid embarks on a new chapter as he transitions from his role as Lieutenant Brad Boimler in Star Trek: Lower Decks. The talented actor is set to feature in two highly anticipated films, Companion and Novocaine, that will launch in early 2025. Over five seasons, Quaid has enchanted audiences as the animated Boimler, while also portraying Boimler’s transporter clone, Captain William Boimler. His journey in the Star Trek universe continued when he reprised his role in a live-action crossover of Star Trek: Strange New Worlds alongside Tawny Newsome as Ensign Beckett Mariner.

Beginning his film career as the villain Marvel in The Hunger Games, Jack Quaid’s prominence skyrocketed after he became one of the lead characters in The Boys on Prime Video in 2019. Following his acclaimed voice work in Star Trek: Lower Decks, he made his mark on the big screen as Richie Kirsch, a Ghostface killer in the 2022 film Scream. With two major leading film roles, Jack Quaid’s range expands beyond his upbeat portrayals as Boimler and the heroic character in My Adventures With Superman.

Quaid’s character, dubbed “Novocaine,”signals a fresh and quirky take on the superhero genre. Midthunder, who shone as the protagonist in Prey, joins Quaid in what is likely to be an entertaining and unconventional viewing experience.

Will Jack Quaid Return to Star Trek as Boimler?

Fans Hope Star Trek: Lower Decks Will Return

As the USS Cerritos embarks on new missions, it’s evident that Jack Quaid’s journey as Boimler is far from over. The conclusion of Star Trek: Lower Decks left fans eager for more adventures featuring their beloved Lieutenants Boimler and Mariner, who faced unexpected promotions as co-first officers. Meanwhile, Captain William Boimler is exploring the multiverse alongside a crew of iconic characters.

Despite the conclusion of Star Trek: Lower Decks on Paramount+, hope remains for its revival or even a potential live-action adaptation. With creator Mike McMahan aiming to reimagine the series in new formats, and Tawny Newsome considering a project integrating Lower Decks characters, the desire for Jack Quaid’s return as Boimler is palpable.

Jack Quaid’s upcoming projects include Heads of State, an action-comedy film featuring renowned actors Idris Elba and John Cena. However, fans may have to wait before seeing Quaid reprise his role as Boimler, as any future developments relating to Starfleet Academy or Star Trek: Strange New Worlds could take some time. In the meantime, his work in The Boys and My Adventures With Superman will continue to showcase his talent, while Companion and Novocaine promise an exciting cinematic experience for 2025.
