Information on the cameo
Admiral Jean-Luc Picard is a character from CBS' Star Trek franchise, originating in the second series, The Next Generation. As captain of the USS Enterprise-D and later the Enterprise-E, Picard exhibited a stern, yet cultured demeanor for which he became known and respected. A staunch supporter of Starfleet and its Prime Directive, Picard was also one of the Federation's top diplomats in his tenure.
The seven-year voyage
Picard's distinctions, however, would not be realized without him and his crew risking their lives and their ship on multiple occasions. As a younger man, Picard had been stabbed through his heart in a brawl with a Nausicaan, to which he has referred several times. His status as a diplomat coupled with his mechanical heart made him a near-perfect vessel for the cybernetic race known as the Borg; as "Locutus", Picard was to aid in assimilating Earth. His crewmates were able to reverse his integration, and he later used his inside knowledge to decimate the Borg.
He would face several of the universe's most daunting villains in his later career, including tyrants Soran and Shinzon, teaming up with the legendary James T. Kirk to bring down the former. When Kirk was ultimately killed, Picard laid him to rest on Veridian III.
