Hemmer was such a good character, shame they killed him off.

One of the things in the interview, that’s super interesting, is that the original script had a scene that would have made it absolutely unequivocal that Hemmer was killed.

And it was shot, with some significant Sfx challenges.

The interviewers asked Bruce if there were any scenes left in the cutting room floor and he responded that there was.

:::The actor was in harness for a falling scene in which he would have been fighting off young Gorn. He had been pleased to have the opportunity to have a heroic on-screen:::

But the scene was cut despite it being challenging production-wise, all the more so with a blind actor in prosthetics.

So, one has to wonder if the showrunners decided to keep the door open for Hemmer to return…

I would have loved to see Hemmer mentoring a young Montgomery Scott…
