Trek guest actors in maybe surprising roles

[FormerLurker]

Starsky & Hutch co-starred David Soul (Makora from "The Apple"), right?

Yes.

Ian Wolfe has a memorable part in the 1948 noir They Live by Night:

Here he is as a priest in the '70s paranoia piece The Terminal Man:

Was this man ever young?

In the 1935 movie Mad Love, Wolfe (age 41) played the father of Colin Clive (age 35). Wolfe was playing older men for most of his career (he died in 1992 at 95).

Wolfe was born in November 1896, so he would've been 38 in Mad Love. And his screen debut was only about a year earlier.

This page has a few photos of Wolfe in the late '30s, already bald but looking no more than middle-aged.

Even closer in age, then.

Lindsay Wagner

Indeed. Would have loved to seen her a Trek at some point (woulda been a good Janeway in the 90's, IMO).

It was actually rumored at one point during Voyager's development that Lindsay Wagner was a leading contender for the role of Janeway. Although I don't know how much stock to put in that, since not long afterward it was rumored that they'd given up on finding a female lead.

But the woman with the annoying voice landed the role in the end after Genevieve Bujold stormed off the set! The above description was made by my ever loving wife by the way!

You're not confusing your actors. She was 11 years old at the time it was filmed.

Both of their expressions scream that after church there's going to be a fire (and that dress and bonnet are going to be in the middle of it). She hates it, and he's bemoaning how much it cost.

A four-for! I Spy, "Magic Mirror" features France Nuyen as a US Agent who Kelly is in love with, who may be a traitor; Mantalbahn as a powerful Latin American dictator who she may or may not be playing; and Roy Jensen (Cloud William) and Jon Kowall (Herm from Mudd's Women) as his henchmen. In the scene at the restaurant table, they're all in the same picture, tho not all facing camera.
