r/DeepSpaceNine on Reddit: What is the truth with Avery Brooks?
May 8, 2023 -
How come Avery Brooks hasn’t truly returned to Hollywood? Is he blacklisted? His personal politics? Just tired of it and wants to teach? According to this one thread I read, it’s for many reasons: https://www.reddit.com/r/DeepSpaceNine/comments/13c0otz/what_trek_actors_do_not_do_the_convention_circuit/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=ios_app&utm_name=ioscss&utm_content=2&utm_term=1
Why hasn’t he truly returned? I feel like Star Trek: Picard season 3 set into motion, his eventual return to the role with the return of the Changelings, but what’s the real reason he hasn’t returned?
Top answer 1 of 46

He chooses not to exist here.

Are you just asking for endless speculation? The "real reason" he hasn't returned is likely a combination of the following factors: 1.) He's financially secure. 2.) He is happy with how he left the character and doesn't feel there's more to explore. 3.) He finds meaning in the other ways he occupies his life -- family, music, teaching, etc.
