    Star Trek Discovery Casting: Michelle Yeoh

    MichelleYeoh Star Trek Discovery Casting: Michelle Yeoh

    ComingSoon is reporting that the very first actor has been cast for Star Trek: Disco

    Star Trek: Discovery has found its first star! Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon‘s Michelle Yeoh is set to headline the CBS All Access series, Nicholas Meyer just confirmed to CS. Meyer, who helmed Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan and Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country, is serving as a consulting producer on Discovery. Although it is unconfirmed at this time, Michelle Yeoh’s role is potentially the series’ lead, a female Lieutenant Commander.

    Here’s a brief biography courtesy of IMDB:

    Born as Yang Zi Qiong in the mining town of Ipoh, in West Malaysia, in the lunar year of the Tiger, Michelle is the daughter of Janet Yeoh and Yeoh Kian Teik, a lawyer and politician. She is of Han Chinese (Hokkien) descent, and spoke English and Malay before Chinese. A ballet dancer since age 4, she moved to London, England to study at the Royal Academy as a teenager. After a brief dance career, she won the Miss Malaysia beauty pageant title in her native country and the Miss Moomba beauty pageant title in Melbourne, Australia in the early 1980s. Her first on camera work was a 1984 commercial with martial arts star Jackie Chan. In 1985, she began making action movies with D&B Films of Hong Kong. She was first billed as Michelle Khan, then later, Michelle Yeoh. Never a trained martial artist, she relied on her dance discipline and her on-set trainers to prepare for her martial arts action scenes.

    She uses many dance moves in her films. She still does most of her own stunts and has been injured many times. Ironically, she still cannot read Chinese and she has to have Chinese script read to her. In 1988, she married wealthy D&B Films executive Dickson Poon and retired from acting. Even though they divorced in 1992, she is close to Poon’s second wife and a godmother to Poon’s daughter. When she returned to acting, she became very popular to Chinese audiences and she became known to western audiences through her co-starring roles in the James Bond film Tomorrow Never Dies (1997) and in the phenomenally successful Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon (2000) aka Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon’ directed by Ang Lee. She turned down a role in a sequel to The Matrix (1999).

    She has her own production company, Mythical Films and has trained with the Shen Yang Acrobatic team for her role in The Touch (2002), an English language film she is both starring in and producing. She hopes to use her company to discover and nurture new film-making talent. She also wants to act in roles that combine both action and deeper spiritual themes.

    stargate-movie-poster

    The much talked about plans to reboot the Stargate franchise with a new feature film — the first in a planned trilogy — is facing a bleak future, according to producer and Stargate co-creator Dean Devlin.

    In a new interview with Empire Magazine published today Devlin said that the project has fallen apart. —Gateworld

    I can’t say I’m too incredibly upset about this, I really wish they’d get back to the television series and give us more stories on a weekly basis.

    Popstar: Never Stop Never Stopping review

    A123d6eyn L. SL1500 787x1024 Popstar: Never Stop Never Stopping

    Conner4Real (Andy Samberg) is the biggest name in music until his sophomore album flops in this hilarious comedy from blockbuster producer Judd Apatow and The Lonely Island.

    Great movie by one of the greatest comedians in film right now, along with two other dudes that do stuff behind him. Also, one of the funniest penis scenes I’ve ever seen in a movie.

    TWG Spotlight – Star Trek Book Club (redux!)

    Just finished the final touches on Star Trek Book Club, it was sitting fallow for a wee bit, but now it’s back better than ever!  There’s over 900 Star Trek books listed on the site, all of them with ISBN, page counts, author meta data and so much more.  Next step is to hire someone to do book reviews and set up the actual book discussions, but that’s something that had to wait until I had all the book information on the site.
