More Star Trek XI Casting News

John Cho [the Harold of Harold & Kumar Go to White Castle] has been cast as Sulu.

I suppose it was inevitable, after all Cho is probably the best known Asian actor out there. I am a little disappointed that J.J. Abrams is following the racial lines so closely and not mixing things up a bit more (an Asian Captain Kirk...an African-American Bones...a Hispanic Spock etc.).

Still it could be worse, they could have gotten Kumar [the hapless Kal Penn, currently stinking it up on House]!

Now that would have been awful!
