Was very surprised to see this particular casting, but I'm not sure how seriously I'll be able to take the film having seen some of his more comedy oriented stuff. He's far more well known as a comedy-style actor than a more serious star trek type ^.^ |

10.12.2007 New Sulu: John Cho Cast in "Star Trek" Movie Everything is falling into place for J.J. Abrams and the casting of the new "Star Trek" film. Now Sulu is on board in the person of John Cho, star of cult movie favorite "Harold & Kumar Go to White Castle." This news according to today's Hollywood Reporter. George Takei, the original Sulu, has reacted to today's news by telling STARTREK.COM: "Sulu's in good hands. John Cho is an exciting actor. I've seen Cho in many productions at East West Players and he always brings a vigorous sense of individuality to his roles. Under the leadership of J.J. Abrams, the Star Trek franchise is being infused with new energy and I hope John Cho plays a critical part for many years  and films  to come." â€â€George Takei, October 12, 2007 By our reckoning, and according to the story, the remaining characters to be cast are McCoy, Kirk and Captain Christoper Pike. The story in THR also mentions that the parents of James Kirk are yet to be cast. |
