Of Gods and Men Part 3 Released

The third act of Star Trek: Of Gods and Men is scheduled to be available at 5:01 Eastern Time today. This segment is the final portion of Of Gods and Men, a fan film that is unique in that it was created by people who worked on the canon Star Trek series as a gift to fans, whereas most fan films and audio productions are made "by fans, for fans." Act three will have many of the Star Trek alumni that have graced earlier portions of the film, such as Nichelle Nichols, Walter Koenig, and Alan Ruck, and will have new characters appear that will be played by actors such as Grace Lee Whitney.

The third act of Of Gods and Men will be available here.
