He referenced his recent work on Star Wars: Visions, joking that he’s loyal to Star Trek, but that he’s also “trying to pacify the Star Wars people.”Ī fan asked Takei about the famous sci-fi writer, Harlan Ellison, who wrote the script for the famous Trek episode “The City on the Edge of Forever.” Ellison was famously unhappy with what was done to his script for that episode, and Takei remembers seeing him on the lot “having a rant about someone I don’t know.” He said that he saw him again later, and found Ellison to be perfectly nice. He’ll play an animated cat general who fights for a character played by Ricky Gervais.
Oh my star trek movie#
At the other end of the creative spectrum, he’s soon going to begin working on a new movie with Mel Brooks. Titled “They Called Us Enemy,” the book is about him being imprisoned by the U.S. Takei said he personally spent the pandemic working on another book. “We Star Trek people, and we who look to the future with optimism, we know better,” he said. He wasted no time in sharing gratitude for the fully-vaccinated audience, mentioning how he was surprised that so many others are currently “fighting to die.” “I missed you all so much,” Takei began, as the crowd gave him a rousing welcome. Takei held a live panel as part of New York Comic Con 2021 and SYFY WIRE was there to learn from the legend himself. Takei's career expands well past those stars however, as he has acted in such projects as Mulan, Kubo and the Two Strings, Archer, has played a version of himself on The Simpsons, and even ventured to the galaxy far, far away with roles in Star Wars: The Clone Wars and the recent Star Wars: Visions. George Takei blazed new trails as the character in the Star Trek franchise, appearing in the original series, the first six movies, and even Star Trek: Voyager. Enterprise would not have gotten far without Hikaru Sulu at the helm, and Sulu only worked because of the man who portrayed him.
