Star Trek's Mr Sulu, George Takei, invites co-stars to gay wedding

"The Star Trek legend George Takei will be accompanied by several of his former co-stars when he marries his longtime boyfriend Brad Altman in a civil ceremony this autumn.

The actor - famous for his role as helmsman Mr Sulu - has chosen Walter Koenig, who played Pavel Chekov, to be his best man and Nichelle Nichols, better known as Lieutenant Uhura, as the matron of honour.

Leonard Nimoy, who played the half-human, half-Vulcan science officer Mr Spock, will also attend the nuptials in Los Angeles on September 14."

Reputedly, William Shatner is not on the invite list.

Should surprise no one. According to "To The Stars", which is Takei's autobiography (I have it around somewhere), Shatner never had much to do with the rest of the cast and friends of mine who met him found him arrogant and stand-offish.

I saw his behaviour at a horse show once.

Yeah, the article mentioned that Takei's boyfriend, Brad, diplomatically said there's a "limited amount of space" at the venue.

However, from what I understand, there's no love lost between Shatner and everyone else.

Well, maybe Nimoy, but it's not his shindig.
