Well... until CBS decided to cast X-Men Hollywood star, Rebecca Romijn to take over as second in command of the USS Enterprise NCC1701. So which is the bigger news?
Bet a lot of fantasies are running wild now....
Originally this role was Majel Barretts whose long black shiny hair and geeky voice wasn't a smash in the 1st pilot.... so she became the lovely Christine Nurse Chapel with blonde hair! No-one will ever notice she said, as she dazzled executives (with dyed blonde hair) and mysteriously appeared before Star Trek creator/ husband Gene Roddenberry who was amazed.
Will CBS recast the original Mr Spock with a digital recreation?
Who are you looking forward to seeing first in Star Trek Discovery?
1. Rebecca Romijn
2. Mr Spock (digital recreation)
3. Captain Christopher Pike
4. Mr Spock (played by an actor)
Live Long and Prosper, trekkers.
