Check out Michael Dorn’s (aka Worf) Kickstarter Project; Through the Fire: Life After Trek
Essentially this is Micael Dorn and a bunch of people from the Trek Universe, making something completely out of genre, partly to say “Hey we can do more than science fiction” but also, just because they like to act/direct.
I think Dorn makes a great point, Trekkies love all things Star Trek, even its its not really Star Trek. If you put Jonathan Frakes and Avery Brooks in a quirky Wes Anderson-esk flick, would I watch? You bet your beard I would!
Here is where I think Dorn hits the nail on the head, the Trek community is tremendously supportive and, as he says, ”Force to reckoned with.” Would you watch him, Marina Sirtis, Nana Visitor, and Armin Shimerman in:
“a romantic comedy about a couple of dazzling New York urbanites who are set-up on the worst blind date ever, only to find out they have more in common than they realize.”
If so, pitch in a few bucks over at the Kickstarter page.
