Star Trek: Discovery: Is [Spoiler] Really Dead or Could They Return? - https://t.co/ojzrL3ecbopic.twitter.com/Ev7UJK714o

-the relationship between Philippa and Michael is the "show’s beating heart"
-their relationship "transcends rank" (no comment)
-Philippa’s death is "personally devastating" for Michael
-Screenrant, AND FANS, ask – could Captain Philippa Georgiou return to the world of the living? Turns out... it’s complicated.
-it seems "a virtual certainty" that she will continue to play a role via flashbacks, which STD producers confirmed will be a major part of the series' structure going forward
-FIRSTLY, highly likely we’ll see far more of their relationship from Michael joining the USS Shenzhou until the present point in the timeline
-But will we see a Georgiou Resurrection? As Michael attempts to find redemption, her Captain’s death will remain a defining moment, BUT of course resurrection has been seen before in Trek, so never say never?
-When series producer Alex Kurtzman was asked about Georgiou and if she was really dead (and if it's a Jon Snow situation), he coyly answered as such: "Here’s what I will say: Yes, 100 percent, she’s really dead. That being said, have patience with us."
-Is he teasing a return to life, or just patience for more Philippa in Flashback Form? Or... something else?
-Jonathan Frakes (who will be directing, as that’s what he does nowadays since being Commander Will Riker on ST: Next Generation) let it slip recently that Discovery will also be visiting the MIRROR UNIVERSE during season 1, known well to fans as a dark parallel reality where people have menacing goatees and generally like murder, orgies and complete depravity.
-So actual legit resurrection seems improbable (although possible) Screenrant believes, but this is NOT the last we’ll be seeing of Queen Michelle Yeoh and Captain Philippa Georgiou...

Did you decide approx 5 seconds in that you would personally die for Captain Philippa Georgiou, ONTD Trekkies?
