Saldana Talks Trek, Uhura… and Sex January 29, 2008
by Charles Trotter , Filed under: ST09 Cast , trackback
Two new interviews show that the casting of Zoe Saldana gives the new Star Trek movie a ‘twofer’ when it comes to diversity. The actress talked to BlackFilm.com about her role as Uhura, explaining what attracts her to the part and describing her meeting with original Uhura actress Nichelle Nichols. In another interview with Latina Magazine, however, Saldana discussed matters a little more… personal.
Saldana tells BlackFilm.com how she won the role of Uhura:
J.J. Abrams had expressed an interest in working with me and he had liked my work. For an actor, that’s all you need. That’s all you want. To get the acknowledgement and respect from your peers; and so I went out and met him. He then said, ‘I don’t need to see you anymore’ and I felt really good. I felt like I did it. I earned it.
Saldana also explained what attracts her to roles like that of Uhura:
I find myself looking for roles that are strong. I don’t feel that there are enough roles that resemble the American women nowadays in Hollywood. I’m not a feminist. Women are becoming filmmakers, directors, and writers, and writing things on how they see themselves. ‘Star Trek’ was no different… Look at Uhura. She’s a lieutenant on the Enterprise, where she’s an equal with everyone. She’s not just a woman. She’s in command just like everyone else is, with power and strength. I felt a mass appeal when I read the script and when J.J Abrams told me he wanted me to do it…
Saldana admitted that she had never watched Star Trek prior to being cast, but expresses admiration for the show’s longevity and its stars. In describing her meeting with original Uhura, actor Nichelle Nichols, Saldana stated:
I was able to sit down with her and she told me the whole story of how Uhura came to be and where they were going with her character, but it all fell into place the moment she walked into the door and auditioned for the part. She named the character herself and it was a special thing and she felt as an artist, she was going to make the part big.
In addition, Saldana notes that she “worked with Leonard Nimoy,” which may suggest that she shares some scenes with the actor. We already know that Chris Pine shares a few scenes with Nimoy, so anything is possible.
Saldana also briefly discussed her role on ‘Star Trek’ with Latina magazine.
It’s great to see an exotic face in sci-fi. Little girls who look like me, or who are Arab, Filipina, whatever, are going to go, ‘Oh, my God, we can be in space, too!
But enough about that… Saldana also told Latina the type of men she prefers (pay attention, guys!)
I’ve always gravitated toward men who praise women for their stubbornness and independence. The ones who couldn’t keep up, I just forget about them.
It also appears Saldana (who is currently in a relationship… dammit) won’t be working on ‘Star Trek’ on Valentine’s Day, as she’ll be a little… busy.
We’ll probably take advantage of the fact that everyone will be off doing their own thing, and we’ll just have lots of sex.
Sounds like a plan to us. :)

Okay, I’ll pay you guys to get an interview with Zachary Quinto talking about sex.
As Woody Allen once opined, “gawd, I’d sell my mother to the Arabs for that woman!” :)
I think Woody Allen did.

…at least it wasn’t an interview with George Takei talking about sex.
Brokeback Shuttlecraft
Star Trek Stuff,,,
did you know,, that from Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country 1991
that After filming was through one day nearing the end of production, Kim Cattrall posed nude for some steamy photos on the bridge set, but Leonard Nimoy happened on scene and seized the film, destroying it and having studio security toss the photographer out.
Boy I wish I saw those pics!
:-)
Dave: Word. And same goes double for Shatner and Nimoy.
LMAO thanks Dave I need a laugh!
#6 SirMartman “Kim Cattrall posed nude..”
I met Kim Cattrall once at a Genie Awards party in Toronto…it was the early 1980’s…..
Yes, she does like taking her clothes off, doesn’t she?
I didn’t think Kim Cattrell made such a hot vulcan, though I honestly have no idea why Leonard Nimoy would care that she was posing nude on the set.
#10
Yeah, you’re right…..having a nude Vulcan posing on the bridge of the Enterprise sends out such a classy message about Trek…….why would Nimoy object to THAT??!! :)
Not too be rude…. but… I’m geeking out right now.
she’s HOOO-OT. Then again, so is Nichelle. In fact if I remember straight, Nichelle was an early love of mine (I was 7)…
My wife wishes me to state that, I’m over any thought of Uhura, and that I hope Zoe is dressed in a floor length skirt throughout the entire movie.
i hope she has about 30 seconds of screen time…about 29 more than Chekov and 10 less than Sulu. This based on the average screen time from the typical series episode.
She seems like a sweetheart; that’s groovy. And definitely the right attitude for Uhura. Hope she gets an earpiece, but that may be too retro for the Abrams approach; not sure …
#6 SirMartman “Kim Cattrall posed nude..”
Maybe Nimoy didn’t like it because he wasnt the photographer? That was cutting into his piece of the action. If you catch my driftwood.

I heart your conservativism, athough I mostly find you to be a complete party pooper of the highest colonic. I mean that in a very good way so dont take it wrong.
BEST!!

Hey at her forum on her official site, there’s short quicktime video of her.

The above post does not seem to reflect a negative bias towards the new movie. Stanky, are you losing your focus in your old age?
Me gusta su acento cuando habla espanol. Es Dominicana que no?
Ahorita, esa chica es mi latina favorita.
Wow, she looks EXACTLY like Nichelle Nichols in that last picture.
She nice looking, I can’t believe her part will be anything substantial though.
“Frequency Open, Sir!”
Don’t suppose it’ll be Kirk: “ok, landing party, Spock, Sulu, Scotty, Bones, Chekov, you’re with me, Lt. Uhura, you have the con.” Have her lead while the higher officers were in trouble would be ok with me :) Move over Janeway, you’re ass is getting a might fat.
#14 S. John Ross
I’m with you on the ‘earpiece’ prop. This is as important to recreating the character of Uhura as is the shortest mini-tunic possible…
#1
Right with you sister. Amen!
lol.
I just hope Uhura (+ Sulu, Chekov and Scotty) will have as much screentime and dialogue than Kirk, Spock and McCoy and will be AS important.
To me the “triad” of TOS was a weakness compared to the ensemble of TNG…
Am I the only one who feels old when cast members say they’ve never seen a Star Trek episode?
re: 17 Gary Sevenandthreequarters
“The above post does not seem to reflect a negative bias towards the new movie. Stanky, are you losing your focus in your old age?”
No, I’m just branching out.
@24 Odd. The strength of Star Trek was the triad compared to the weakness of the ensemble cast of TNG. The movies bear that out.
Besides once you get past Picard, Data, & perhaps Worf the rest of the ensemble was bland and interchangeable.
#1. Add my money ;)
#25
We ARE old compared to them. I saw the original in the first German broadcast in the 70’s and recorded some of the episode sound only on a cassette recorder ;)
That IS old.
@29 - Ha! I did sound recordings too!
hahaha # 2 and # 3.
Brilliant hahaha.
Re: #24: Alex, Alex, Alex…what are we going to do with you? :-)
Re: #29 & #30: Me three! And try doing it with 30 minute cassettes! Frustrating!
(Old Guy) Scott B. out.
Wow 29, 30, and 32 you were geeks! Well, me too. Roll on Realistic with 30 minute tapes. Trying to keep the silence of my sisters was the biggest challenge. I think I about wore out my old Star Wars dialog record LP too. Old, old, old.
#29, 30, 32. Me four. In fact, I am so old and so geeky that I recently digitized my old cassette collection, and now I can listen on my computer to fuzzy, hissy Doomsday Machine with my mom in the background cooking dinner.
Zoe in uniform, baby!
Bring back the Mini!
Even though I would have loved to see Thandie Newton in the role, I think Zoe is going to do a fine job now that I know how she’s approaching the character. She’s got spunk as well as Uhura’s timeless beauty.
#25 - CanuckLou
I don’t think it’s a matter of the cast being much younger but rather that maybe some of them were not really interested in sci-fi to begin with and therefore they had never watched Star Trek. I remember watching an interview with Jonathan Frakes - who’s much older than I am - in which he admitted that he knew nothing about Star Trek before he was offered the role.
In TOS Uhura basically sat at her station and said “hailing frequencies open” every now and then. While it wasnt very exciting for Nichelle Nichols, and was almost the reason she quit, it was the nature of Uhura’s character until the later movies came along.
It sounds like the new Uhura has been written/Seldana’s gonna play her as something she’s not, which I guess is to be expected with the way they’re handling the rest of Canon.
#30, #32, #34 - yay for cassettes! *G*
#34 - “Doomsday Machine” was great on cassette because the wacky special effects didn’t pull you away from the WONDERFUL dialog that episode has. It’s one of my favorites to this day.
#37 CTIII -
(Ronald Reagan voice): There you go again.
#37 - You’ can’t expect them to keep Uhura at the limited level, do you?? Uhura fans are looking forward to seeing more of her real potential, and not what was left when the TOS scripts were edited like hell due to time and money restraints. And even in the old series, Uhura can handle the circuits in her own console!
Personally, I hope all of the cast have some great, shiny moments. They sure have quality actors enough for that on board.
I just hope Zoe will hit the convention circuit now. I have a picture already of my daughter and I with Nichelle Nichols. We stood in line for what seemed like forever waiting to get the picture, so by the time it was our turn my poor 4 year old was crying her head off. Nichelle just looked at me and said, “Oh great, she’s going to look at this picture years from now and remember me as the old lady that made her cry”.
#39
bahaha!
Also, Saldana’s was in a movie called “Center Stage” with lots o’ screen time, rent that one to score some points with the girlfriend or wife as it’s not a bad chick flick, either :)
#24–While I fully expect Uhura to be a stronger female role than she was in TOS, I find the very comparison of Kirk/Spock/McCoy to the TNG “ensemble” frighteningly blastphemous!!! Nothing in any of the spinoffs remotely resembled the magic of the TOS big 3. Even the TNG cast has admitted as much. I found the TNG character dynamic to be rather boring, and not even as good as the one in DS9.
#37–Just because we were never shown a great deal of Uhura’s personality before, doesn’t mean she never had one. Now, if she was butt-ugly, couldn’t sing, did not like fuzzy furballs, and couldn’t make that defiant face she does when Khan’s henchman slaps her for being uncooperative—THAT would be a violation.
#37.
There is no canon. It was made up by fans. the true canon is that there isn’t any.
Just watch the show in ordr for proof.
I’m glad there is a producer willing to drag Trek into this century.
easy, Charles
#24
I don’t know where you get that from. The original series character interaction was always considered one of the strong aspects of the show.
The TNG spinoff relationships couldn’t hold a candle to the original.
mmmm Zoe.
That’s all . The rest is not safe for work, or this family friendly website.
She’s a great choice for Uhura- I wish her all the best.
Arrrr.. was Uhuru featured better in the films than in the show? I think so.
#37
I recall, on tha show, Uhuru darling having one spotlight episode wherein she fought on this odd triad-painted floor while glowing brains gambled. Oh, and Kirk kissed her. Oh, and she distracted evil Sulu.
Wait… maybe she did do a good deal of all matter fo things… she told Kirky boy about Jesus in Rome… sang a song to some drunken Irish crewman… brought the tribbles on board… and so on…
She was the last voice Kahn heard, right-o?
Who the hell was signaling ships on TNG? Worf? There’s a warm personality to growl “hi” on hailing frequencies.
Arrrr….

Hey- on the news homepage, your headline says she talks about sex!
There are children on the homepage!
No wonder Kirk turned out the way he did…
Forget canon..make it your own. Its truly time..
Way to (affectionately) swat the killjoy, Hitch. Too cool!
Ms. Saldana is quite lovely in her own right, and may indeed be a fine actress (I’m completely unfamiliar with her work), but she won’t fill out that mini the way Nichelle Nichols did. . .
Did you realise that most of the original actors had NEVER seen Star trek before taking on their roles?
Wow, it’s a wonder they did what they did…
I suppose that falling in love with Uhura as a young boy influenced my preferences in women and female forms as an adult. No-one will ever replace Nichelle in my book. No-one could look more sexy just turning around in the chair or simply sitting there in the background than her! And I melt during her singing. Her every move was like a dancer.
But I’m open to seeing this new Uhura all the same.
let’s hope trek maintains it’s legacy of an open minded approach to sexuality:
http://www.milkandcookies.com/link/90355/detail/
GOOD FOR ZOE…
…at least someone’s getting some nooky on Valentine’s Day. I’m married with 2 kids… which means there’s no way I’m gettin’ any on a weeknight! :)
#54
“Most” of the original actors? Wouldn’t that have required a time machine of sort ta see something that hasn’t yet been created?
Mayhaps old Bill Shatner actually said, during his audition, that “I’ve seen every episode …and…it’s….just marvelous! I’m so glad… I didn’t go to law school ….instead of acting because of shows…like…like…this one!”
#6 - Sex and the Saucer Section — cool.
I wonder if Zoe will be sidling up to young Master Pine. It would be too funny to have a scene with Kirk snoring and Uhura pulling on her boots.
Zoe — welcome to Trek. Let’s hope the new generation acknowledges real, longterm relationships, including sex and also the hard work. (No, I’m not hoping for JJ’s Anatomy, but for something real.) It’s one area where TOS kind missed the spaceship.
Man, all I’m gonna be thinking about Valentine’s Day is how some lucky stiff is getting it on with Zoe…
Envy is not a positive emotion.
56 — open minded approach to sexuality
Forget “Threshold.” You found the absolute dumbest part of the dumbest episode of the dumbest series in all Trekdumb.
#58…
I said “most” because I knew someone here would pipe up and say “well, it’s possible that some of the cast members watched “The Cage” before acting on TOS!” So, “most” had not seen any ST before taking the roles.
#62
Harrrrr
I canna believe someone would know that… harrrr
But what about the actors in “Tha Cage?” - had they not seen any Trek beforehand?
she can open my hailing frequencies any time, growl…. ;)
#5
That’s an incredibly insulting comment to make. Bigotry has no place here. Go hang out with Rush Limbaum if you feel that way.
I would be happy to have her look after my Captain’s Log….. :)
-So this is ‘the new “trek babe”…
Pffffff, I really don’t see her as a babe. She’s just a liiiiiitle too skinny for my taste. ‘Bones’ could get a whole new meaning if she gets the knickname ;)
She looks like Uhura and I hope I can keep up with some independent, stubborn women.

***************
Opposite. Pretty much every part of that post, I feel the opposite. :)
Oh, “sultry.” Damned dislexia.
um, oh Anthony? you mis-spelled Uhura on the poll question.
As much as I like the secondary characters, that’s all they can ever be if the main story is to progress. I doubt we’ll see much of them except for brief scenes, really. A TV series is the only way for secondary characters like that to ever be spotlighted. The most they’ll get is a few moments in the sun in this movie.
Cute broad
I was hoping that Saldana would have keep our V-day getaway plans a secret… oh well I won’t kiss and tell… ;-)
Let’s not forget that most prequels/remakes don’t usually feature the cast as they were originally portrayed. Obviously, I JJ is going to try to stick to the original vision - as he stated in a previous interview - but that doesn’t mean that he’ll stick with the original script. Besides, I wouldn’t be surprised if the cast gets pretty equal time to set up each of their histories and story lines. Obviously, Spock and Kirk will get more screen time, but that doesn’t mean they’ll be on a full 2 hours. And considering that almost all of the casting choices have been in lead roles in movies, I doubt they would just be happy to sit around in the background.
Oh, and just out of curiosity, has anyone seen Lost? I would have to say that if JJ has a pattern, it’s establishing individual characters. Anyone who is a fan of that show knows that he likes to delve into details - even some that seem pointless and then come back to mean something.
#76… Let’s hope so… but I’m thinking it will about like the original cast movies… all the secondary cast has their moments, and were important, but the main story was Kirk, Spock and McCoy.
As long as they get some good lines and parts in, I’ll be happy. Any more is just gravy.
#77 -
“Oh, and just out of curiosity, has anyone seen Lost? I would have to say that if JJ has a pattern, it’s establishing individual characters. Anyone who is a fan of that show knows that he likes to delve into details - even some that seem pointless and then come back to mean something.”
Exactly! I absolutely LOVE “Lost”… didn’t think much of it at first, but my wife got me hooked on it and now we own the first 3 seasons on DVD. I can’t wait to see what kind of little character tidbits they sprinkle throughout the Kirk & Spock flashbacks!
(I think it’d be a cool little scene if we saw a young Spock, after being taunted by his peers, huddled in a corner somewhere muttering, “I am in control of my emotions…”)
(Or young Kirk walking by his female classmates as they look at him all moony-eyed!)
To 29 and 30 I have something in common with you also regarding taping the original series onto tape. That in it’s self makes one feel old. But at the time that’s all we had, as video was yet to be created for us consumers. And it was better then nothing. My has technology done a complete turn around what with DVD’S, MP3 & 4 players..
I can’t remember what episode it was now but the other night I was watching bits of it, while trying sort my two cats. There’s a bit where Uhura is speaking to Spock and asking him about Vulcan and whether it had any moons to which he replied, Vulcan has no moons, (yet in the slow motion picture as I call it, Vulcan suddenly has two moons). Anyway that was nice to have Uhura interacting with other crew members and not having to hear hailing frequencies one more time as she said in that scene. It’s a lovely scene and I’ve met Nichelle Nichols in real life and she’s such a sweet person and I’m glad she got to meet Zoe Saldana.
I don’t know much about Zoe Saldana as an actress but I’m sure she is right for the part. Well have to wait and see.
#79 I always forget that episode name too, but according to Google it’s in “Man Trap”. Woah, early!
IMO season 1 had the best over-all crew interaction. It went already a bit downhill in season 2.
re: 79 DFG
“I don’t know much about Zoe Saldana as an actress but I’m sure she is right for the part. Well have to wait and see.”
What actress? All you have to do is turn in your chair and hold that ear thingy and say ‘hailing frequencies open’…
55. Diabolik - January 30, 2008
I suppose that falling in love with Uhura as a young boy…
That’s a new one for me. I didn’t know Urhura was once a boy. :)
You know , looking at her in that pic I can see a young Nichol.
And damn Stanky, there was a bit more than that to it.
#24: I agree. I want to see more of an ensemble piece for this movie that we did with the original series.
That said, the ensemble style of storymaking that TNG so enjoyed as a series pretty much went out the window once it went to the silver screen, which I feel was a big flaw with the NextGen movies.
Tell me I’m wrong that the NextGen movies didn’t basically become the “Picard and Data” show. I’m not saying that was a horrible thing, but it was not the way the series had develeoped throughout its seven-year run.
I’m still waiting for a “Star Trek” movie that is not a “let’s save the universe” type of story. Someone said it best in another thread recently, when asking Mr. Abrams “when is “Star Trek” going to make good on its seeking out new life and new civilizations–too boldly go?…”
I am VERY much looking forward to this movie, but I do hope we see a film in the future that is not a time travel story; not a threat larger than life; but one with big themes and ideas.
I think that the following episodes of each of the series– TOS’ “The Cage,” “NG “The Drumhead, DS9 “Far Beyond the Stars,” VOY “Memorial” and ENT “Carbon Creek” came closest to TREKs mission statement. I’d be interested in seeing what other fans think on this topic.
OY!
Yummy!
Wow, in the last picture she really did seem to have an uncanny Uhura look about her. I didn’t really think she was a great pick look-wise before, but I do now.
#84
Farrrr Beyond the Stars… good one that be… If memory serves it be when Ben Sisko is a sci-fi writer for a pulp magazine in the forties…
At the end he says that Deep Space could be just a dream from a writer’s imagination…arrrr… is that speaking to the audience, realising yer just a man called Hawk….
Also be a good one called The Visitor… rather good sci-fi with Benny popping in and out of his boy’s life throughout time but not time travel… Very good… Haven’t seen much Deep Space… what else ya got?
arrrr… I forgot Uhuru’s fandance in my Uhuru moments above…
#61 Stanky “hailing frequencies open”
You’re criticizing something endemic to TOS, a series you purport to be the “end all and be all” and never to be repeated…
What if JJ and crew produce a more credible Trek mythology with each member of the bridge personnel getting their “moment to shine”?
Would you admit to possibly being persuaded then?
Come, Stanky, come over to the dark side….. :)
(muffled breathing sounds…)
Luke, Aye AMMMMM your father!!!
oops

re:Harry Sphericals
“You’re criticizing something endemic to TOS, a series you purport to be the “end all and be all” and never to be repeated…”
One thing that burns me is that, although the secondary characters (except Chekov) had some moments in the series that were great, over the years their perceived importance has grown way beyond what was shown. Uhura had little to do in most of the series, and that was enough.
And all this “giving them first names” after-the-fact really grates at me. They weren’t called by their first names for three years.
Star Trek was not an “ensemble show” nor should it be. Even with new fake actors they should stay true to the formula of the “big three.”
I fell in love with Uhura when I was a little girl and saw my first Star Trek episode at age 8. I am a Black woman and it was inspiring to see Nichelle Nichols play a character like Uhura. I wanted to be just like her and I dressed like her for Halloween at age 10 complete with a toy phaser! I have always been intersted in space and science thanks to Star Trek. I ended up majoring in math and science and I now work with computers as an adult. I think Zoe Saldana will do an excellent job as the new Uhura. She seems very down-to-earth and I think she will give viewers a new take on the character.
#94 Stanky “they should stay true to the formula of the ‘big three’”
Stanky, I personally agree with the points you’ve made…..I just love to tease the hell out of you! It was….FUN!!! :)
#84–While I agree with your thoughts on adventures/ themes for future Star Trek movies, I have to disagree with you on the whole “ensemble” thing. The magic of Kirk/Spock/McCoy was something TNG failed to measure up to, and that’s a big reason why I never jumped on board. Sure, there were some good episodes and worthy stories, but the characters were never as good to me. The closest the spinoffs ever came to matching the “character magic” was DS9, and even then it wasn’t all that close. There is an established dynamic in TOS, and the new film should not stray from that. That does not mean that Uhura cannot be depicted as having a bit more to say (just because her lines were limited in the 60’s doesn’t mean she never had anything to say), but the focal point should remain with the TOS “bread and butter” of the “big 3″…
#95–Nichelle was the epitomy of beauty—-in her face, body, voice, and soul. I think back to “Bread and Circuses”, where she (Uhura) was the only one of the officers who understood what the religion meant to the planet’s population. Her voice, even if only saying, “Hailing frequencies open, Sir”, was soothing, gentle, and smooth. She could sing, too. I loved her acting in “Mirror, Mirror”, and “Space Seed” (although it was subtle, her defiant reaction to Khan’s henchman always got me). Zoe, like the rest of them, has her work cut out trying to fill those Star Fleet issued boots and that yummy miniskirt…
Zoe Saldana said; “I’m not a feminist. Women are becoming filmmakers, directors, and writers, and writing things…”
Well, women wouldn’t get to be all those things without political action by women, right? Oh, those women are called feminists.
Buy a clue honey.

I see you’ve registered on the official Trek site. What do you think of it?
Hey Harry!
Well, I did that mainly to snag “Vulcanista” as a user name. Mine, mine, mine! I probably won’t be posting there very often, will just be lurking.
There’s not a lot to see right now. When I was there earlier today, the message boards were shut down. ‘Bout all I did was futz around with my sig and profile.
Overall, it’s real purty and slick, tho, and there’s room for all kinds of Trek fora in the world. But them fancy-shmancy Hollywood boys ain’t got nothin’ on Anthony and trekmovie.com.
Peace. Live long and prosper.

I must admit that I prefer the simplicity of this site…you think of something and you post it…..no hoops to jump through!
Life is complicated enough!
