Daily Birthdays and Events in Sci-Fi, Comics and related areas

December 3, 2011

Stargate: Atlantis, The Green Hornet, Timecop, James and the Giant Peach, Dickie Dare, Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country.

Nicolas Coster is having a birthday today. Most won't recognize the name but you'd recognize his face. One little known thing about Nicolas was he portrayed the U.S. president in unused footage of the film Contact (1997). This was done to provide a safeguard for the film-makers should something happen to President Bill Clinton before the release of the film.


Enjoy !!!
