Leonard Nimoy

The actress who played Lt. Uhura died on July 31.

The City of Boston, Massachusetts has decreed that March 26 is officially 'Leonard Nimoy Day,' on what would have been the 'Star Trek' actor's 90th birthday.

A musical tour through the long history of actors releasing musical albums — some pretty good, many entirely awful.

Star Trek: Discovery Season 2 just doubled its pointy-ear budget. Following the arrival of the U.S.S. Enterprise and its early Captain, a fan-favorite director has confirmed Spock will be making an appearance in the show’s second season.

The late, great Leonard Nimoy, who died earlier today at the age of 83, will always be Mr. Spock, second-in-command of the USS Enterprise under Captain James T. Kirk. For a long time, Nimoy was not okay with this. And then, over the years, he embraced the character that defined his career and inspired an entire generation of fans (many of whom became scientists, engineers, and astronauts). But Nimoy didn't just sit back and rest on his Vulcan laurels. When he wasn't wearing those pointy ears, Nimoy was acting, directing, writing, singing, and lending his likeness and distinctive voice to commercials and TV specials. He was a real Hollywood renaissance man, dabbling in high art, low art, and everything in-between.

We have very sad news to report from The New York Times: Leonard Nimoy, Star Trek’s Mr. Spock for almost 50 years, has died. Nimoy’s wife, Susan Bay Nimoy, told the Times the cause of death was “end-stage chronic obstructive pulmonary disease.” The beloved actor and director was 83 years old.

It made sense to bring Leonard Nimoy’s version of Spock into the fold for J.J. Abrams’ ‘Star Trek’ reboot. The character’s actions on screen literally restarted the franchise, allowing Abrams and his team to introduce younger versions of our cherished characters. But does it make any sense to bring Nimoy back for the sequel?
