Ironically, Creator/JJAbrams would happily blow Vulcan to smithereens in [[Film/StarTrek2009 the 2009 movie]]. In an even more ironic decision, he blew Vulcan to smithereens for ''precisely'' the same reason that Ron Moore ''didn't'' have it occupied: it showed how serious things were, and that things were not going to be the same again.

*** The final season of ''Series/StarTrekPicard'' creating a satisfying coda for ''The Next Generation'' more than 20 years since we last saw them all together, and including characters from other series, whetted fans' appetites to see more old characters return, especially since ''Picard'' reintroduced the Changelings and alluded to Odo. Since Kurtzman announced that he would like to have a regular TV movie release, fans have stated that this would be a great opportunity to return to the DS9 cast.
