    Trek Untold sat down with Brian Volk-Weiss during NYCC 2024 to discuss the newly announced Star Trek figures from his company, Nacelle Toys. Brian, a lifelong Trek fan and collector, is choosing an unusual route to make his highly articulated collectibles, with the intent to please the hardcore fans more than putting these out in big box stores where they would fester and rot like previous attempts by other companies. Brian breaks down who will be part of his first wave and details what accessories they include (revealing some secrets he hasn't discussed elsewhere), his strategy and plans for longevity, the story behind how he got the license, and what he will do differently from others, and much more in this deep dive into a toy line that has the potential to make Trek fans extremely happy.

    "Farragut Forward:" The Making of A Star Trek Fan Film

    Fan films are an integral part of Star Trek history, with lovers of the franchise creating homemade versions of the show as far back as when the original series first hit the airwaves. Nearly six decades later, the tradition continues, but now with higher budgets and more impressive effects. “Farragut Forward” is the latest entry in the ongoing saga of the Farragut crew, a fan-made homage to Trek with nearly two decades of stories produced on film. Their newest feature debuted on October 1, 2024, combining practical effects with modern CGI and classic Trek storytelling to make a compelling movie. Trek Untold chatted with producer and star John Broughton, director Johnny Karzai, and performers (and “Farpoint Toys” store and museum owners) Penelope and Justin about the making of “Farragut Forward” and why this fan film is worth checking out.

    Bonita Friedericy: Some Assimilation Required

    Bonita Friedericy is always cool, calm, and collective... as in the Borg collective! Trek fans know her as the scientist named Rooney from the "Enterprise" episode titled "Regeneration," which chronologically introduced the Borg to Star Trek. You might not know the story of how she got that role, as well as the secrets behind filming and the origins of her costume. Friedericy is also the wife of John Billingsley, AKA Dr. Phlox. She explains whether or not this relationship had anything to do with getting the part (Spoilers: it didn't!), and stories from her hubby visiting her on set. Plus, being an understudy for Jennifer Tilly, playing General Diane Beckman on the cult classic TV show "Chuck" with Zachary Levi, her unusual role as Terry Loach on "Preacher," and stories about John Cho, Stephen Tobolowsky, Ted Danson, and more!

    Laurence Luckinbill: Risk, Reward, and Vulcan Ears

    Laurence Luckinbill's career on stage and screen was filled with high-risk choices that often led to great reward. One of those decisions just happens to be Star Trek related. Trek fans know Mr. Luckinbill as Sybok from "Star Trek V: The Final Frontier," where he donned the pointy ears to play Spock's brother. We learn about how he got the role, his thoughts on who the character is and why he is a more complicated villain than you might believe, working with William Shatner and Leonard Nimoy, and why the much-maligned fifth movie is better than you remember. We also learn about growing up in Arkansas and how he found the theater, lessons from George Kernodle and Uta Hagen, insight into his "Great Americans" one-man play series, and a deep dive into his multi-year role in the milestone play and film, "The Boys in The Band," a breakout show for LGBTQ culture during a pivotal time in gay rights, of which he is the last surviving cast member. This might be one of the most in-depth interviews with this legendary performer on YouTube, so get ready for a deep dive into this actor who has long earned his time in the spotlight. You can pick up Larry's memoirs "Affective Memories: How Chance and The Theater Saved My Life" at this link here - https://amzn.to/4enuNAB Watch his "Great Americans" plays on his YouTube channel - https://www.youtube.com/@UClBi65yUrOuyGwoyBlbAFKA Please subscribe to our brand new YouTube channel: www.youtube.com/@trekuntold .
