Summary SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT There were several reasons why it took nearly 24 years for the Star Trek franchise to visit the Klingon home world, Qo'noS. The Klingons have been a major part of the franchise since their debut in Star Trek: The Original Series season 1, episode 27, "Errand of Mercy", which aired in 1967. Sworn enemies of Starfleet and the Federation, Star Trek's Klingons continued to clash with Captain James T.
"Sins of the Father" won an Emmy Award for Best Art Direction for Star Trek: The Next Generation production designer Richard James for his work in realizing the Klingon Great Hall and other sets. Star Trek: The Next Generation season 3, episode 17, "Sins of the Father" and the "Redemption" two-parter bear some similarities to "Kitumba" as they both involve a Starfleet captain taking an active role in Klingon politics.
Sackett doesn't reveal much more about this Klingon-centric version of Star Trek II, but it's possible that this would have been a feature-length treatment of John Merydeth Lucas' "Kitumba". Some of the elements, like characters, sets, and costumes from Star Trek: Phase II were carried over to Star Trek: The Motion Picture. It would make sense that Roddenberry would be looking at the various story ideas for the revival show as potential movie plots.
