By Jamie Lovett - December 7, 2019 11:11 am EST Share 0 Comments 0 Star Trek: Picard beamed into Comic Con Experience in Brazil this week. Star Patrick Stewart couldn’t be at the event, though he recorded his apologies for a video shown during the show’s panel. His co-stars Jonathan del Arco, Isa Briones, Michelle Hurd, and Santiago Cabrera did attend the event. Hurd told the convention audience that she hoped Picard continues Star Trek: The Next Generation’s legacy of being a “window to humanity” that addresses “otherisms.” She said, “It’s the necessity of hope. This is a bigger story than I realized. It gives up something for us to hold on to. In a time when we are divided, it’s good to have something we can jump on to and tell a story that can touch our hearts and connect us together.” The other cast member also hyped the series. Del Arco, returning as Hugh from The Next Generation, told fans … [Read more...] about Star Trek: Picard Cast Hopes to Live Up to The Next Generation’s Legacy by Connecting Viewers

By Russ Burlingame - September 13, 2017 08:47 am EDT Share 0 Comments 0 Star Trek veteran Nichelle Nichols is not just a trailblazer in television, but the actress behind one of the most beloved women in TV history and someone who has used her celebrity both to continue promoting Star Trek as a brand and to improve the world around her. Nichols said during an interview this past weekend at Wizard World Chicago that she quietly hoped for the kind of universal acclaim for Star Trek that would make her a TV icon, and that nearly fifty years later, when it was time to hand the role of Nyota Uhura over to Zoe Saldana for the JJ Abrams-directed reboot of the franchise, she was happy to do so. “She’s great,” Nichols told ComicBook.com. “When I was leaving the country at the time, I told her I gave her my best and wished her the best, and she did very, very well with it.” Her advice for the incoming cast of Star Trek: Discovery, a series … [Read more...] about ‘Star Trek’ Icon Nichelle Nichols Talks Zoe Saldana, ‘Discovery,’ And NASA

By Jamie Lovett - August 21, 2019 11:23 am EDT Share 0 Comments 0 From 1966 through 1969, Star Trek: The Original Series captivated an audience of dedicated fans before it was canceled. A decade later, in 1979, Star Trek returned. This time, it wasn't a weekly, episodic television series. It was an epic feature film intended for the big screen. Star Trek: The Motion Picture brought back the original Star Trek cast for their biggest adventure ever, with acclaimed director Robert Wise at the helm. Though the film's production was troubled, it managed to bring Star Trek back as fans had never seen it before. Visual effects guru Douglas Trumbull was fresh off of work on 2001: A Space Odyssey when Wise and Paramount Pictures enlisted him to work on Star Trek: The Motion Picture. Following the film's production, Trumbull was hospitalized for exhaustion and ulcers.
