  Speaker 1: best known for playing Chekhov in the original Star Trek,

• 1:26
  Speaker 1: He received a star in the Hollywood Walk of Fame
• 1:28
  Speaker 1: in 2012. Very popular photo op with Trekkies, as you

• 1:38
  Speaker 1: And then there were two, Sulu and Captain Kirk. That's right.

  Speaker 1: recently had Alan Richson from Reacher lined up for the lead.
• 2:16
  Speaker 1: But Richson dropped it. That's not easy to say, by
• 2:19
  Speaker 1: the way. Richson, try saying that five times. But he

  Speaker 1: a federal marshal tasked with guarding the fiancé of an
• 2:28
  Speaker 1: arms dealer who's seeking witness protection as she preps to
• 2:31
  Speaker 1: testify against him. Gee, that sounds original. Fans of either
• 2:35
  Speaker 1: Aussie muso G-flip, or Chrishell Stouse from Selling Sunset. Russell
• 2:41
  Speaker 1: is neither of those things, and I could be speaking
• 2:43

  Speaker 1: have had three other ceremonies since then, which is always
• 2:59
