Since Star Trek: Picard debuted in 2020, a number of old Star Trek favorites have triumphantly returned to the sci-fi franchise after several years of hiatus. The past two seasons of Picard alone saw the return of Patrick Stewart, Jeri Ryan, Brent Spiner, John de Lancie, and many other actors from Star Trek: The Next Generation. While it’s possible to see more old Star Trek alums reappear in the franchise as the media property continues to expand its universe on Paramount+, not all won’t be able to do a comeback, as some of them are no longer with us. Below is a list of popular Star Trek thespians that have already passed away.
25 Star Trek actors that have died
Leonard Nimoy
Star Trek series: Star Trek: The Original Series, Star Trek: The Animated Series
Character name: Spock
Date deceased: February 27th, 2015 (aged 83)
Nimoy first played the fan-favorite role of Spock ― the half-human, half-Vulcan first officer and science officer aboard the USS Enterprise ― in the pilot episode of The Original Series shot in late 1964. He then portrayed the character in The Animated Series and the first six Star Trek movies. After an almost two-decade Star Trek hiatus, the actor returned to the franchise in the 2009 movie Star Trek as Spock Prime, a role he reprised in the 2013 film Star Trek Into Darkness. Having played Spock on and off for over 49 years, from 1964 to 2013, Nimoy is the longest-serving Star Trek actor of all time.
In February 2015, the prolific actor died of complications from chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, a condition he attributed to a smoking addiction he had given up about 30 years earlier. A few days before his death, Nimoy tweeted: “A life is like a garden. Perfect moments can be had, but not preserved, except in memory. LLAP”

Though he made some appearances on TV shows and in films outside the franchise, he didn’t have any memorable role other than McCoy.
Later in life, the Star Trek alum developed an interest in poetry and eventually published the books The Big Bird’s Dream in 1977 and The Dream Goes On in 1984.

Date deceased: July 30th, 2022 (aged 89)
Nichols’ Uhura served as a communications officer aboard the USS Enterprise and USS Enterprise-A in The Original Series, The Animated Series, and the first six Star Trek films. Nichols’ portrayal of Uhura was groundbreaking as it was one of the first times that an African-American actress portrayed a non-stereotypical role on television. Previously, most African-American female characters on U.S. TV were depicted as maids or housekeepers, and Nichols’ Uhura helped break that barrier.
In 1977, Nichols started to take part in a special project to recruit minority and female personnel for NASA. Among those she directly recruited through the program were Dr. Sally Ride, the first American female astronaut, and U.S. Air Force Colonel Guion Bluford, the first African-American astronaut. In 1979, Nichols was named as NASA’s Woman of the Year for her efforts.
Nichols died of heart failure on July 30th, 2022 in Silver City, New Mexico. She was 89. In early 2018, four years before her death, Nichols was diagnosed with dementia and subsequently announced her retirement from convention appearances. Three years prior to her dementia diagnosis, in 2015, Nichols suffered a mild stroke at her Los Angeles home and was admitted to a Los Angeles-area hospital.

According to the Los Angeles Police Department, Yelchin stepped out of his Jeep Grand Cherokee to check his locked gate when the vehicle rolled back down his driveway ― which was on a steep incline ― and pinned him against a brick pillar. The Los Angeles County Coroner’s office identified the cause of death as “blunt traumatic asphyxia” and stated that there were “no obvious suspicious circumstances involved.”

Character name: Borg Queen
Date deceased: January 29th, 2023 (aged 45)
Annie Wersching died on January 29th, 2023 in Los Angeles. The actress was diagnosed with an unspecified cancer in mid-2020. She, however, kept her diagnosis private and continued to act afterward.

But she left us the tools to fill it,” Full said. “She found wonder in the simplest moment. She didn’t require music to dance. She taught us not to wait for adventure to find you. ‘Go find it. It’s everywhere.’ And find it we shall.”
He continued: “As I drove our boys, the true loves of her life, down the winding driveway and street, she would yell BYE! until we were out of earshot and into the world. I can still hear it ringing. Bye my Buddie. ‘I love you little family…’”
Wersching played the Borg Queen in season 2 of Star Trek: Picard. Her other notable acting roles include Renee Walker in 24, Julia Brasher in Bosch, and Leslie Dean in Marvel’s Runaways. She was also the voice and performance-capture for Tess in the video game The Last of Us.

Although Alley’s Star Trek stint was a memorable one, the actress was best known for her role as Rebecca Howe in the NBC sitcom Cheers and as Veronica Chase in the NBC sitcom Veronica’s Closet. On the movie front, Alley also played the role of Mollie Jensen in the Look Who’s Talking trilogy.
