Farpoint is pleased to announce that Alan Tudyk will be a guest at Farpoint this February. Firefly fans will of course remember him as Wash, but one of my personal favorites was his role as Sonny in the I, Robot movie. Alan also appeared in Death at a Funeral and Knocked Up. He just finished filming the pilot episode of the new Barry Sonnenfeld television show called All Rise.
In response to the large number of members who have requested more “behind the scenes” professionals, actor Phil Weyland will also be joining us. Phil is a longtime member of the Star Trek family, although one whose name may not be the most familiar. He was DeForrest Kelley’s double on Star Trek: The Motion Picture and ST II: The Wrath of Khan. Phil then began working as a double and dialogue coach for William Shatner on the remaining Trek movies and is still filling this role today for Mr. Shatner on Boston Legal.
Alan and Phil will be joining our old friend Harve Bennett at Farpoint’s new home, the Crowne Plaza Baltimore North in Timonium, MD.
