Star Trek: Enterprise’s Jolene Blalock is befuddled by the absence of William Shatner from Star Trek (2009). The actress, who played T’Pol for all for seasons of the latest Trek series, is going to San Diego for Comic-Con (where she’ll be promoting Starship Troopers 3: Marauder), which is only her fourth convention. Speaking with Femme Fatales, Blalock had this to say about ST09: “I’m a little perturbed that William Shatner’s not in it, but that’s just me. If Leonard Nimoy is in it, shouldn’t William Shatner be in it? But I haven’t read the script. I’m just venting.”
On the subject of conventions, Blalock said:
I do enjoy them but I don’t get to do them very often. I’m looking forward to it because it’s an experience to be in that room with all of the fans and just to see everyone come up with their special unique costumes. It’s the sci-fi gay parade. You know, gay pride? But for sci-fi, sci-fi pride. That’s what it is.
