10 Actors You Forgot Were in Star Trek

For nearly six decades, Star Trek has enjoyed a vast number of memorable guest performances. However, given the franchise’s length and the sheer quantity of episodes and one-off characters, it’s easy for many guest stars to have fallen through the cracks in terms of memorability.Whether it’s because they’re buried under layers of alien prosthetics or because they got their big break after appearing in Star Trek, some one-off appearances from big-name stars may catch even the most dyed-in-the-wool Trekkies off-guard. Surprising actors like Winona Ryder and Kirsten Dunst have appeared in the Star Trek franchise over the years.For those familiar with Banks solely through his performance as Ehrmantraut, Banks’ appearance in Star Trek: Deep Space Nine’s thirteenth episode “Battle Lines” — rocking a long, black shaggy wig — will come as a shock. When their runabout crash lands on a lunar penal colony, Sisko, Kira and Bashir find themselves caught in a conflict between the Ennis and the Nol-Ennis, forging an uneasy alliance with the Ennis’s leader, Golin Shel-la. As Shel-la, Banks displays his natural gravitas that would make Mike Ehrmantraut such a breakout hit many years later, and his appearance proves to be one of the highlights of Deep Space Nine’s first season.
