Today is actor George Takei’s birthday. Known to many as Star Trek’s Hikaru Sulu, Takei played the character throughout the entire original Star Trek series and its six subsequent films.
Beyond playing one of science fiction’s most recognizable icons, Takei has maintained a successful acting career outside of the Star Trek universe. Superhero fans will certainly remember him as Kaito Nakamura (Hiro’s father) in NBC’s Heroes. His other notable roles include First Ancestor in Disney’s Mulan, Galactus in Marvel Super Hero Squad, Grandfather in Supah Ninjas, and The Elder Monk in Ultimate Spider-Man.
Next, he will be bringing his voice talents to Yamasong: March of the Hollows and Kubo and the Two Strings. Outside of his film work, Takei is also an accomplished writer and community activist.
Born in Los Angeles, California, Takei turns 79 years old today. Happy Birthday, George Takei.
A new report suggests that CBS’ streaming ‘Star Trek’ series will be set in the original continuity with a new crew, before events of ‘The Next Generation.’
Among the many questions raised by CBS’ announcement of a new All-Access streaming Star Trek for 2017 under Hannibal creator Bryan Fuller, fans had to wonder if a TV return would follow the J.J. Abrams reboot films, return to the original timeline, or perhaps exist independent of both. Now, reports suggest that not only is the original continuity back in play, we know which Star Trek properties the new CBS iteration will fall between.
According to Birth.Movies.Death, the new as-yet-untitled Star Trek series will first return to the timeline previously rebooted by J.J. Abrams’ film series, but still take place after the original Enterprise crew have made their mark on the galaxy. Set sometime between Star Trek: The Undiscovered Country and The Next Generation TV series (thereby making original cast cameos unlikely), the new series will be “heavily serialized” with a new, non-Enterprise ship.
Additionally, less confirmed is that Klingons may again feature as major villains of the series, despite the “Khitomer Conference” of Undiscovered Country brokering peace between the two races. It’s also possible that the series overall could operate as an anthology, changing time, setting and focus from season to season.
Hannibal and American Gods showrunner Fuller will headline the new streaming iteration of Star Trek as co-creator and executive producer, while Wrath of Khan director Nicholas Meyer has also joined alongside Gene Roddenberry’s son Rod. So reads the initial synopsis for the series, which debuts on CBS in January 2017 before moving to All-Access:
The brand-new “Star Trek” will introduce new characters seeking imaginative new worlds and new civilizations, while exploring the dramatic contemporary themes that have been a signature of the franchise since its inception in 1966.
Fellow producer Alex Kurtzman wrote both the 2009 Star Trek reboot and its 2013 sequel with frequent partner Roberto Orci, though Orci has no involvement in the new TV series.
Fans will be pleased to return to the past continuity, but what might it mean for the film series, after this summer’s Beyond?

Ce sera la dernière sélection Journalière / Hebdomadaire de cette année et surement de l’année prochaine. Je publierai beaucoup moins de ce genre d’article sur le blog l’année prochaine, ou du moins de manière plus aléatoire.
Je me limiterais plus à des sélections de façon plus aléatoire en terme de publication la sélection et programmation de l’ensemble des images prenant un peu trop de temps 🙂
Merci de m’avoir suivi dans ce délire d’image cette année, en espérant que vous me suivrez aussi dans mes messages d’opinions et de revues plus persos.
