There's a good reason for why Paul Wesley's Kirk seemed so different in the StarTrekStrangeNewWorlds finale. StarTrek StarTrekSNW

Star Trek: Strange New Worlds' first season finale introduced Paul Wesley as the latest actor to play Capt. James T. Kirk. The finale episode,"A Quality of Mercy," saw Kirk crossing paths with Capt. Christopher Pike in an alternate timeline where Pike remained in command of the Enterprise during the events of the Star Trek episode"Balance of Terror.

"[That version] is a little more of a shrewd, serious Kirk," Myers tells IGN."What I really love about his performance is there's a kind of public persona that people imagine Kirk being that really isn't totally present except in big, big, broad moments from the Original Series. And he really tried to build it around who the character was in that moment."

Wesley has also talked about comparisons to Shatner's Kirk. He also backed up Myers' take on the character. "In the season 1 finale, it's actually a Kirk that we've never seen because he doesn't really exist," Wesley tells Entertainment Weekly."It's an alternate projected timeline of something. If Pike hadn't died and he was still commanding the Enterprise, what would this world look like? Of course, it doesn't exist. It's just in his mind. So he meets Kirk, and Kirk is not captain of the Enterprise. Kirk is captain of the Farragut.
