I’m assuming the picture in the article is of him as a Klingon? Wild how often their design changes

Klingon/Tellarite hybrid, they say so in the article.
His quote of being "as happy as a pig in shit" in the title is a direct reference to his role’s half descendance being Tellarite, himself explaining that "Tellarites are these really aggressive disputatious pig people"…
