Frakes is certainly no stranger to the Star Trek universe whether in front or behind the camera. In addition to playing Will Riker on spinoff series Star Trek: The Next Generation (as well as appearing on Deep Space Nine, Voyager and Enterprise), Frakes has 16 directional credits to his name including the critically acclaimed motion picture, Star Trek: First Contact.
Frakes has not commented at this time.
