True story: when I was in school, George Takei once came to our class and talked about his experiences living in an internment camp in California during World War II, and it was there that he fell in love with movies and wanted to be an actor. No, really. Anyways, George Takei said he recently “had lunch” with J.J. Abrams, which brings up the question: is he scheduled for a cameo in Trek 11, too?

George Takei, who played Hikaru Sulu on the original “Star Trek” and now serves as announcer on Sirius’ Howard Stern radio show, recently had lunch with J.J. Abrams, Takei tells Sirius’ Howard 100 News.

Asked if he would be in J.J. Abrams’ upcoming “Star Trek” feature with Leonard Nimoy, Takei would only issue a “no comment.”

This is funny. William Shatner has been bitching and moaning about not getting a cameo in the movie, and now it looks like Sulu and Spock will be back, but not Kirk. I think Abrams has a grudge against Shatner or something.
