George Takei on Star Trek: New Voyages

We just got word that the next installment of the completely fan-made online series Star Trek: New Voyages (which we wrote about a few weeks back) features a special appearance by Sulu himself, gay actor George Takei. The preview below of the episode, titled "World Enough and Time", shows a Sulu that returns from the future looking quite butch, if not a bit Road Warrior: If you like what you see (and really, how can you not?) you can download the episode at the official site, which pledges to finish the Enterprise's "five-year mission" (which in reality only lasted three). And for your print-and-cut enjoyment, here's a stunning lobby card of Sulu, both past and future: sulu.jpg This whole project is just awesome. It's so great to see fans who love and respect something so much that they flat-out refuse to let it die. I highly doubt anyone will be doing the same for Everybody Loves Raymond in 40 years.

    Thanks for the update Brian.

    This is so cool - I had no idea about this show.

    I've always loved the Star Trek franchise.

    I'm developing quite the crush on Takei all over again since he's comeout of the closet.

    Truth is a very attractive trait and I think he's better than ever.
