The following is a small excerpt from The Grapevine by Marilyn Beck in Hollywood of 19 July 1990. ---------- ALMOST READY FOR TAKEOFF: Though none of the cast has seen a script for ``Star Trek VI,'' the latest installment of the big-screen saga is about to go into warp factor four, says Nichelle Nichols, a.k.a. Lt. Uhura. ``I met with the Paramount production heads and they told me they've got three scripts they really like and they're very close to a decision,'' says Nichols. ``We have to start the film soon because Paramount has already announced that `VI' will premiere Sept. 8, 1991, which is the 25th anniversary of the series.'' Nichols, who is getting her one-woman ``Reflections'' show ready to open in Toronto in September, figures ``I'll be coming back from there in time to start shooting.'' ---------- David B.
