Nov 25, 2016 · Bennett referred to The Voyage Home as a “local location” production (a TV term referring to shows that use near-by outdoor locations as a setting to save money on building sets). He referred to The Wrath of Khan as a “bottle show” because almost 65% of the movie was made on the same set (the Enterprise and Reliant were the same sets).

The size of William Shatner's ego is pretty common and according to official reports, it almost kept him from being in The Voyage Home. Shatner was resistant to return and it seemed to put the production in a chaotic state. Eventually, Shatner was persuaded to return with the proviso that he received a healthy chunk of change. That big paycheck was...
In spite of the fact that he knew nothing about Star Trek before directing The Wrath Of Khan, Nicholas Meyer is responsible for a lot of movie-goers fondest memories about the franchise. Having directed The Wrath Of Khan and The Undiscovered Country, it may surprise some that Meyer worked in The Voyage Home. Though he didn't direct the film, Meyer ...
Since the whales play a pretty sizeable role in the flick, it makes sense that one of the first things the effects department did was get some footage of whales. They actually attempted to shoot footage of actual humpback whales but to no avail. RELATED: Every Star Trek Character Played By Jeffrey Combs, Ranked Art Director Nilo Rodis then approach...
In a scene where Uhura and Chekov ask around about where the naval base in Alameda is, the only civilian who gives them the time of day only got involved to save her car. In an interview, extra Layla Sarakalo revealed her car was impounded as she failed to move it for filming reasons. To get enough money to get her car back, Sarakalo asked if she c...
Marine biologist Gillian Taylor, played by actress Catherine Hicks, is one of many women to be romanced by the infamous Captain Kirk, but she shows a greater deal of strength than the usual affair. Hicks and Shatner's banter was entertaining, which made it odd to hear rumors that the romance was forced in by Shatner himself. However, according to c...
Before Gillian Taylor was created, comedian Eddie Murphy was approached to play the role of Kirk's foil in The Voyage Home. At the time, not only was Eddie Murphy a huge name, but he was also a huge Star Trekfan to boot.

Though there were times that William Shatner and Leonard Nimoy disliked each other, that disdain certainly wasn't apparent on the screen. One of the funniest scenes in the movie came when Gillian Taylor asks the two if they like Italian food and Spock assumes he doesn't, which Kirk attempts to correct to get what they want. According to reports, th...
During a scene where Scotty and Doctor McCoy approach a glass company with the specs needed to make durable glass that is only an inch thick, the man in charge of the plant allows Scotty to use his computer to punch out the formula. That computer is an Apple Macintosh Plus. Originally, the crew wanted to use a Commodore Amiga, which was another fam...
The Voyage Home is a film that is critical of whaling, which makes sense, as its a horrible action. That message appealed to the then Soviet Union, as The Voyage Homewas the first Star Trek film to be screened there. Harve Bennett, who was a producer and co-writer on the film, attended a screening in The Soviet Union organized by The WWF (World Wil...
The scene where Spock uses The Vulcan Nerve Pinch on a punk blaring obnoxious music, played by associate producer Kirk Thatcher, is one of the most famous scenes from the film. That said, the scene may actually place Star Trekin The MCU. Thatcher also cameoed as a similar character in Spider-Man: Homecoming, complete with a boombox on his shoulder....
