History
The character of Lt. Uhura may not have had the most screen time on the originalStar Trek,but she managed a real impact on audiences with the time she did have, making her actress Nichelle Nichols an inspiration to many and a long-standing presence in the franchise when it made a comeback on the big screen after the show’s cancellation. Uhura’s enduring popularity with Trek fans has led to further revivals of the character in J.J. Abrams’Star Trekmovies and most recently in the new showStar Trek: Strange New Worlds.
