The Fourth Kind. Star Trek: Discovery director Olatunde Osunsanmi has developed an impressive filmography as a television directer, having worked on such shows as Bates Motel, Gotham and Falling Skies. But prior to that, Osunsanmi made three feature films, including 2009's The Fourth Kind. The film stars Milla Jovovich as a psychologist in a small town which has experienced a series of alien abductions. In this episode of Stage Nine, Mike and John take a look at The Fourth Kind.
