Whenever movie re-makes are made or prequels and sequels are indulged, people are often left with a sense of nostalgia that they want to satisfy in odd ways; in the case of the Star Trek Actors Combined series, an artist decided to combine two time periods into one. Mashing the faces of old and new actors for the highly popular sci-fi franchise, Redditor ThatNordicGuy managed to show people that they are eerily similar. In this way, it is almost impossible to protest the choice of casting.
From Christopher Pine and William Shatner to Nichelle Nichols and Zoe Saldana, the Star Trek Actors Combined series is quite impressive. It is interesting to note that the original actors are shown as almost ghostly composites.
