Comment on Sir Patrick Stewart is the only Star Trek actor to appear as his character and with himself on screen at the same time

TLDR: Twitter user discovers that a copy of The Globe Illustrated Shakespeare appears in several episodes, tracks down the pages on screen in those episodes, and finds that in the episdoes “Silicon Avatar”, “True-Q” and “Descent I” it’s displayed on screen open to pages 354/355 which displays a picture of Pstrick Stewart performing in a production.

  Jörg Hillebrand (born 2 April 1980; age 46) is a research consultant (or “research assistant” as he was officially credited) who worked on the second and third seasons of Star Trek: Picard. It did earn him his own individual Internet Movie Database entry, on top of his (second) in-universe reference as a Starfleet officer.

  He worked on Star Trek: Picard but never got to meet Patrick Stewart?

    As far as I know he basically assisted in keeping lore facts straight during production, which I assume is mostly a email and video call job. Not someone who runs around on set, especially when living in Germany
