star wars and star trek actors and actresses

Recommended Posts

Here's a question I've been wondering for some time...

 

Has their been any actor or actresses that has been on both Star Wars and Star Trek? I'm racking my brains to try and think of one but can't come up with a single name. It's easy to pick from the star wars cast, but the trek people have a lot of extras and guest stars. Can anyone out there think of any?

The Closest I Can Come Up with is Christopher Lee and Robert Prcardo both being in Gremlins 2, lol

Well that's close enough. So what about Dr. Who and Star Trek...for that matter Dr Who and Star Wars?

 

Going back to the first question was their anyone who worked in the production crew that worked on both star wars and star trek? I think their was suppose to be one guy who worked on sfx for one of the original trek episode and then worked on the first star wars at some capacity. Anyone know any truth to this rumor?

Regarding production crew there probably were many people who worked on both Star Trek and Star Wars since ILM did the special effects for all seven seasons of TNG as well as for the movies Generations and First Contact.

ILM didn't do any of Voyager or DS9s and they didn't do Insurrection or Nemesis.

 

Yes, they abandoned all model work in favor of total CGI. I prefer models.

I saw an interview with Jonathan Frakes and he was asked why ILM didn't do the effects on Insurrection and his response was their bid was too expensive.

and I did catch ILM on Part III's Credits :wow:

Are you sure that credit was not for "stock footage"?

I saw this

 

Special Visual Effects Produced at

Industrial Light & Magic, Marin County, California

 

and

 

General Manager, ILM

Tom Smith

 

 

 

 

And back to the Initial Topic, I don't there are Actors woh have appeared in Both, but I could be mistaken
