After four years of waiting, Star Trek parody Unbelievable!!!! has been picked up.
What if I told you that there was a movie, made up of about 40 Star Trek alum, that featured Snoop Dogg leading a bunch of plants in an alien invasion of the Earth and the only thing that can stop them is a marionette puppet that looks like an off-brand James Kirk; would you watch it? Well, that’s what’s up on deck for the Star Trek parody film, Unbelievable!!!!
The film stars Star Trek: Voyager’s Garrett Wang and Tim Russ, Star Trek: Deep Space Nine’s Chase Masterson, as well as voice actor Kevin Carlson. The four will be joined by rap-con Snoop Dogg, as well as a slew of Trek actors ranging from the original series (Nichelle Nichols and Walter Koenig) to Star Trek: Enterprise (Linda Park, Connor Trinneer).
The film’s trailer appears to paint the film as an over-the-top, so-bad-it’s-good (hopefully), slapstick affair. A hoard of Trek actors can be seen in the trailer, as well as one still-angry Kirk nemesis.
Deadline has a whole list of Trek cast members for the film, which you can see below.
"Nichelle Nichols, Robert Picardo, Linda Park, Manu Intiraymi, Armin Shimerman, Vaughn Armstrong, Gary Graham, Anthony Montgomery, Marina Sirtis, Nana Visitor, Walter Koenig, Michael Dorn, Julie Warner, Dina Meyer, Olivia d’Abo, Jeffrey Combs, John Billingsley, Max Grodenchik, Casey Biggs, Gary Lockwood, Michael Forest, Jack Donner, Connor Trinneer, Dominic Keating, Brenda Bakke, Patti Yasutake, Steve Rankin, Michael Dante, Sean Kenney, BarBara Luna, Beverly Washburn, Celeste Yarnall, Bobby Clark, Jasmine Anthony, Menina Fortunato, McKenzie Westmore, Crystal Allen, Christopher Doohan with original Star Trek composer Gerald Fried, and one of the harmonica players, Tommy Morgan, also from TOS."
Joining all of them will include indy actor Michael Madsen, as well as over-the-top comedian Gilbert Godfried.
The Facebook page for the film posted a small message after news broke that the film had been acquired by Indie Rights.
"As promised, we said we would let you all know when UNBELIEVABLE!!!! would be coming out, and no, it’s not 2034. Thank you for hanging in there with us."
The film is scheduled to be available through the Virtual Cannes Film Market starting today for a short time period.
