Stage Nine 4: The Robin of Star Trek / by Mike Schindler

Anton Yelchin.


On July 19th, 2016, we lost the youngest member of the Star Trek family, Anton Yelchin. Yelchin portrayed Ensign Pavel Chekov in J.J. Abrams' Star Trek and Star Trek Into Darkness, as well as Justin Lin's upcoming picture, Star Trek Beyond. Outside of Star Trek, Yelchin's extensive resume included over 50 performances in film and television.

In this episode of Stage Nine, John and Mike are joined by Adam Drosin to remember Yelchin. We discuss his portrayal of a young Chekov, and his work outside of Trek, including Terminator Salvation, Alpha Dog, and Green Room. We also give our picks for favorite Yelchin performances.
