Some Voyager fans don't realize that the first choice to play Captain Kathryn Janeway wasn't actress Kate Mulgrew, but Genevieve Bujold. Bujold was first cast as Janeway, but she didn't last long.
When Bujold was cast, the character's name was Nicole Janeway. Bujold lasted only one day for the pilot filming, and then realized that a TV actress schedule was just not to her liking. Bujold's professional resume is extensive, but she's probably best known to American audiences in the Michael Crichton thriller Coma - opposite Michael Douglas.
