New George Takei Star Trek Episode Premiering Soon!

This Thursday, August 23rd, a brand new episode of the fan-created Star Trek: New Voyages "World Enough And Time" featuring George Takei as Hikaru Sulu and Grace Lee Whitney as Janice Rand will premiere! Trekkers the world over can find it streaming on the New Voyages website from the Fine Arts Theater in Beverly Hills at both 6:00 PM and 10:00 PM EST in high definition video. Each screening will be followed by a Q&A session with the cast and writer/director Marc Scott Zicree.

Zicree is a former Star Trek: The Next Generation writer who penned the script with fellow Trek alumni Michael Reaves. The original idea for "World Enough And Time", depicting an aged Sulu raising a family on an alien planet, was by Reaves and intended for the aborted 1970's Star Trek Phase II series. So it promises to be a better than average fan-created episode. Plus, industry veterans were recruited to help, including concept artist Iain McCaig (designer of Star Wars' Darth Maul and Queen Amidala) and Oscar and Emmy winning makeup, effects (there are over 700 effects shots in the episode!) and storyboard artists.

Go boldly, check out the trailer on the New Voyages website and sign up for the stream today! Gargon Terror correspondents should be tuning in and will report back with our thoughts after the show...
