“Happy as a pig in shit”: Paul Giamatti says his Starfleet Academy role fulfills a lifelong Trek dream
My theory is that actors love Star Trek because it’s one of the few shows that allows a massive amount of range in acting. Wanna die and come back to life? Star Trek. Wanna play your evil twin for awhile? Star Trek. Wanna swap spots with a fellow actor and pretend to be them? Star Trek. Wanna give the most heart wrenching monologue? Star Trek. Wanna do a cool fighting scene and work with explosions? Star Trek! And that’s all in one episode! More on reddit.com

Paul Giamatti ’89 B.A., ’94 M.F.A. | Yale 2023
Giamatti began to work in film and television shortly after he received his M.F.A. His ascent was gradual at first, with early minor roles ranging from TV drama (NYPD Blue in 1994) to film comedy (Mighty Aphrodite in 1996). A self-described introvert who has said that he is drawn to characters “that nobody pays much attention to,” for many years he gravitated toward supporting roles.

Seems like took off and then just disappeared. Crazy how many great roles he’s had and hasn’t felt like he’s gotten his due. Watching Black Mirror season 7: Eulogy, really reminded me of how powerful he is. What a range in such an amazing story. Favorite roles?

October 16, 2025 - Honestly Paul being in it makes me think it'll be less cartoonish. He's a great actor and seeing his range - from Downton Abbey to Billions to Straight Outta Compton and beyond - gives me a lot of hope. ... On a tangential note, Giamatti should’ve won Best Supporting Actor for Cinderella Man and I will die on that hill.
