Philippa Georgiou is a fictional character appearing in the Star Trek franchise portrayed by Malaysian actress Michelle Yeoh. First appearing in "The Vulcan Hello", the pilot episode of Star Trek: Discovery, Yeoh features as a major member of the recurring cast during the first three seasons of the series, and is credited in the main titles as a "special guest star" during each of the episodes she appears in. The character is introduced as the respected captain of the USS Shenzhou and a maternal figure to series protagonist Michael Burnham (played by Sonequa Martin-Green). Beginning in "The Wolf Inside", the eleventh episode of the show's first season, Yeoh portrays an alternate version of Georgiou from the Mirror Universe, a despotic and ruthless emperor of the Terran Empire. The character makes her final appearance in "Terra Firma", the two-part ninth and tenth episodes of Discovery season three.

Yeoh will reprise her role as Georgiou in the film Star Trek: Section 31, slated for release in 2025.[1]
