The 1974 TV pilot inspired the character of Lt. Data on 'Star Trek: The Next Generation.'
The Big Picture The Questor Tapes, one of Gene Roddenberry's projects that followed the cancellation of Star Trek, is coming to Blu-ray for the first time. Although it never made it to series, the pilot did inspire the iconic character Data from Star Trek: The Next Generation.
Kino Lorber will release a restored 2K Blu-ray edition of the 1974 TV film, which was intended as a pilot for an NBC series; after a dispute between Roddenberry and NBC, the series was canceled, and the pilot aired as a TV movie. The disc will feature a brand-new HD master from a 2K scan of the 35mm interpositive; it will also feature restored versions of the network trailer and promo for the movie and an all-new commentary from film historian Gary Gerani.
The Questor Tapes stars Robert Foxworth as the titular Questor, a humanlike android searching for his mysterious creator, Emil Vaslovik . Accompanied by scientist Jerry Robinson and pursued by the sinister Geoffrey Darrow , he eventually learns that Vaslovik, too, is an android and that they were both created by an advanced race of aliens to assist humanity. The film also stars Dana Wynter, James Shigeta, frequent Star Trek presence Majel Barrett, and Pavel Chekov himself, Walter Koenig.
Gene Roddenberry's Other Television Projects The Questor Tapes was one of a number of Roddenberry projects following Star Trek's 1969 cancellation, including Genesis II, Planet Earth, Strange New World, and Spectre; intended as pilots for series, like Questor, they were aired as TV movies instead. He also worked on a Star Trek revival series, Star Trek: Phase II, that was eventually scrapped and reworked into 1979's Star Trek: The Motion Picture.
The Questor Tapes will be released on Blu-ray on December 5. Stay tuned to Collider for future updates.
